1953 Map of Bradley Peak

USGS Topo · Published 1955

About this map

High-elevation terrain defines this 1953 survey of the Wyoming backcountry, where the Ferris Mountains and Seminoe Mountains converge. The landscape is marked by the remnants of early 20th-century isolation, most notably the Elkhorn Stage Station (Ruins) and several deserted homesteads like the R S Ranch and Boot Ranch. Resource extraction is evident in the presence of the Coal Mine and the inactive Sunday Morning Mine, while water management is highlighted by a prominent Ditch system serving the high desert basins. These features, along with the landmark summit of Bradley Peak, illustrate the rugged transition between ranching and mining operations in Carbon County. The map provides a detailed look at the hydrology of the area, from the seasonal Sand Springs to the waters of Mahoney Lake, set against a backdrop of steep ridges like Junk Hill and Windy Ridge.
