About this map

The Wah Wah Mountains dominate this high-desert landscape in southwestern Utah, where the terrain is marked by remote ridges and narrow canyons. Mining activity is evident throughout the area, with several locations simply labeled Mines or Prospects scattered across the slopes of Blawn Mountain and near The Tetons. These mining interests were supported by a network of primitive transportation routes, including Jockey Road and numerous unnamed trails.

Water sources, essential for survival and industry in this arid environment, appear as isolated points such as Jockey Spring, Sage Well, and a small Reservoir. The boundary between Beaver Co and Iron Co bisects the southern portion of the quadrangle, cutting through a topography defined by Sawmill Canyon and The Seeps. The map provides a detailed look at the land before modern development, capturing the specific locations of geographic markers like Pink Knolls and Fishers.
