1991 Map of Warm Point

About this map

Confusion Range terrain dominates this Millard County landscape, where the high desert environment is marked by a series of north-south running ridges and valleys. The map illustrates a transition between the rocky outcrops of the Barn Hills and the sunken expanse of the Tule Valley (Depression) to the east. Transportation through this remote section of the Great Basin relies on primitive routes like Blind Valley Road and Snake Pass Road, which navigate the gaps between the heights of Warm Point and the steep walls of Smooth Canyon. Evidence of mineral exploration appears in the form of scattered Prospects located near the passes, suggesting a history of geological sampling in these isolated limestone hills. Drainage patterns are defined by ephemeral features such as Sand Wash, which cuts across the western slopes of the range toward the Garrison Black Rock Road in the south.
