1958 Map of Awakening Peak

USGS Topo · Published 1975

About this map

The Awakening Mining District defines this high-desert corridor of Humboldt County, where 1950s survey work captured a landscape of hard-rock extraction and cattle ranching. Centered on the Slumbering Hills, the map reveals a high density of mineral claims including the Humboldt Mine, Jumbo Mine, and Alabama Mine. Settlement here is sparse and strictly tied to water and wealth; the Awakening (Site) and Daveytown represent the human footprint in the shadow of Awakening Peak. To the east, the Bloody Run Hills rise from the Silver State Valley, punctuated by historic travel markers like Amos (Old Stage Station) and the Andorno Ranch. The Quinn River meanders through the western flats, providing a rare water source for River Ranch near the expansive Gallagher Flat.
