About this map

Tabbys Peak dominates the landscape of the northern Cedar Mountains in this mid-1950s survey of western Utah. The terrain is defined by deep drainages including Rydalch Canyon, Wildcat Canyon, and Six Horse Canyon, which cut through the high ridges. At the base of these mountains, the land levels out into the expanse of Skull Valley.

Evidence of historical transit and resource use is sparse but significant, marked by the presence of Tabbys Spring and a network of unimproved routes labeled as Jeep Trail. A prominent passage through the mountains is noted at Rydalch Pass, providing a window into how the local topography dictated movement between the desert valleys. To the south, Water Tanks indicate the vital infrastructure required for any activity in this arid environment.
