1954 Map of Beaver Dam Mts SE

USGS Topo · Published 1956

About this map

The Shivwits Indian Reservation occupies the northern reaches of this mid-1950s terrain, where the high desert transitions across the state line between Washington County, Utah and Mohave County, Arizona. The topography is defined by the steep elevation changes around Jarvis Peak and the Utah Hill Summit, a landscape that invited early exploration for mineral wealth. Several extraction sites are concentrated along the central ridges, including the Westside Mine, Jessie Mine, and the Black Warrior Mine. These workings are accompanied by specific notations for Tunnels and a Shaft, indicating active or recent subsurface exploration during the survey period. Drainage through the arid landscape is captured by features like Cedar Wash, which cuts through the complex contours of Mountain Valley. This preliminary edition focuses on the physical geography and mining footprints before extensive modern infrastructure reached this corner of the Beaver Dam Mountains.
