1970 Map of Chokecherry Mtn.

About this map

Chokecherry Mountain and the surrounding high desert terrain in Lincoln County appear here in a snapshot of the early 1970s. The landscape is defined by the convergence of the Burnt Springs Range and the Delamar Mountains, where the path of highway 93 crests at Oak Springs Summit. This area is characterized by its vital water sources, from the Balm of Gilead Spring to the Nelson Spring, which likely supported livestock and transient travelers in an arid environment. Mining history is evident in the southeastern reaches of the map, where the Paylor Mine and Taylor Mine are situated near Paylor Mine Canyon. This 1970 survey captures a network of Jeep Trails and Pack Trails that provided access to these remote operations and springs long before modern development altered the region.
