2011 Map of Topaz Mountain SW

About this map

Whirlwind Valley and Swasey Bottom define the open, arid geography of this Millard County landscape as it was documented in 2011. The area is characterized by vast drainage systems and seasonal watercourses, including the long reach of Dry Lake Creek and the southern extent of Fish Springs Wash. To the northeast, the terrain rises into the Wildcat Hills and Horse Valley, where the elevation creates a distinct break from the lower basins. This survey captures the sparse network of unpaved roads and trails that traverse the region, reflecting a land primarily shaped by natural landforms rather than permanent human settlement. The placement of Swasey Knolls Wash further illustrates the complex watershed patterns typical of this part of the Great Basin.
