Doc's Pass Wilderness

Washington County, UT

Approximate location — plotted from published sources, not a site visit, and not a guarantee of access.

Roughly 17,000–18,000 acres of remote desert mountains and canyons in the northwest corner of Washington County along the Nevada state line make up Doc's Pass Wilderness. Together with adjacent Cougar Canyon and Slaughter Creek wilderness units it forms a larger roadless block linked to Nevada wildlands and Dixie National Forest roadless country. Visitors backpack, ride horses, and camp primitively; there are no developed trailheads or facilities.
