About this map

Table Mountain and the surrounding high desert of Tooele County define this landscape of dry watercourses and ancient geological formations. The area is characterized by relic drainage patterns, most notably the prominent Old River Bed that snakes through the northern territory and the Pismire Wash to the west. These features, along with the White Marl Bluff, provide a window into the prehistoric hydrology of the Great Basin.

Human presence is marked primarily by infrastructure designed for water management and transit across the arid flats. The Simpson Springs-Callao Rd serves as a primary artery through the terrain, passing near the North Table Mountain Reservoir. Further south, the East Dugway Reservoir sits near the base of the Slow Elk Hills, illustrating the essential role of artificial catchments in this environment. The intersection of Flint Springs Rd further emphasizes the remote network of trails used to navigate the region.
