1963 Map of Antelope Peak

About this map

Antelope Mountains dominate the southern half of this 1963 landscape, anchored by the prominent Antelope Peak and the sharp profile of Needle Peak. To the north, the terrain transitions into the broad alluvial expanses of Hidden Valley and Vekol Valley, where Vekol Wash carves a drainage path across the desert floor. The map documents a period of mid-century infrastructure expansion, most notably a highway marked as Under Construction stretching across the central plains near the settlement of Antelope.
