Rush Valley - Access

Access

Utah State Route 36 transects the center of the valley, starting from a section at the northeast, from Tooele and Stockton. It turns and leaves the valley's southeast to meet the region of Eureka and Silver City in the East Tintic Mountains.

Utah 73 joins Route 36 at the valley's center, after traversing the south of the Oquirrh Mountains, in the valley's southeast, (the north perimeter of the southeast section).

Utah 199 enters the valley center from Dugway, and its canyon route through the west mountains is the dividing line between the Stansbury Mountains north, and the Onaqui Mountains south.

Famous quotes containing the word access:

    “Knowledge in the form of an informational commodity indispensable to productive power is already, and will continue to be, a major—perhaps the major—stake in the worldwide competition for power. It is conceivable that the nation-states will one day fight for control of information, just as they battled in the past for control over territory, and afterwards for control over access to and exploitation of raw materials and cheap labor.”
    —Jean François Lyotard (b. 1924)

    “The nature of women’s oppression is unique: women are oppressed as women, regardless of class or race; some women have access to significant wealth, but that wealth does not signify power; women are to be found everywhere, but own or control no appreciable territory; women live with those who oppress them, sleep with them, have their children—we are tangled, hopelessly it seems, in the gut of the machinery and way of life which is ruinous to us.”
    —Andrea Dworkin (b. 1946)
