1951 Map of Circle

About this map

Steese Highway serves as the primary artery through this interior landscape, connecting remote outposts and gold-bearing drainages. The map highlights the early infrastructure of the region, anchored by roadside stops such as Miller House and Central House, while the presence of Twelvemile House (Abandoned) marks a shifting pattern of habitation. High peaks like Mastodon Dome and Chena Dome overlook a network of creeks—including Hope Creek and Faith Creek—where Placer Mines indicate the area's mining history. The importance of geothermal resources is evident in the identification of Chena Hot Springs and Circle Hot Springs, which remained significant landmarks for travel and recreation in this portion of the White Mountains.
