2017 Map of Wig Mountain SW

About this map

The Great Salt Lake Desert dominates this expansive landscape within Tooele County, revealing the stark topography of one of the West's most formidable environments. The map shows a region largely defined by its vast alkaline flats and subtle elevation changes, where the survey grid provides the primary structure across the open terrain. Human presence is remarkably sparse, with only the lone path of Falconer Rd cutting through the southwestern corner near the boundaries of t7s r12w. This 2017 study illustrates the intersection of modern cartography and a primitive landscape, preserving the exact alignment of section lines and township boundaries like t6s r12w that have governed land division in the Utah desert for generations.
