Upper bounds of the Hausdorff volume of scalar gradient field graphs are derived by means of geometric measure theory. The approach reproduces that scalar gradient fields along a mean imposed scalar gradient become space filling for sufficiently high values of Schmidt numbers Sc. The bounds are consistent with findings from recent high-resolution numerical experiments for 1<= Sc <= 64, but too rough when compared with numerical simulations. A Reynolds number dependence of the bounds is found due to the additional scalar gradient stretching term in the equation of motion.
