1950 Map of Avon SE

About this map

The Antelope Range dominates the southwestern corner of this 1950 topography, providing a distinct backdrop to the alluvial landscape of Iron County. To the east, Tucker Point and the prominent Three Peaks stand as landmark elevations overlooking the network of seasonal drainages. The drainage system is defined by Dick Palmer Wash and Iron Springs Creek, which carve through the terrain as it slopes toward the basin. Human activity in this arid environment is evidenced by the established Antelope Road and several isolated windmills, suggesting a land primarily used for range and livestock at mid-century. The map also delineates the northern border of the Utah-Iron Co. line, capturing the boundary where the two counties meet amidst features like Upper Pt and the seasonal Hollow.
