1937 Map of Delano Peak

About this map

The Tushar Mountains dominate this 1930s survey, revealing a landscape defined by high-altitude mining and early forest service administration. High on the slopes of Gold Mountain, the settlements of Upper Kimberly and Lower Kimberly represent the region's gold mining heritage, supported by the Sevier Mine. To the east, the town of Marysvale serves as the valley gateway to these rugged peaks. The map details the industrial infrastructure of the era, including the Alunite Ridge Tramway and the Power House near Beaver Creek. Beyond industry, the presence of the Delano Ranger Sta and Big Flat Guard Sta, along with named shelters like Butler Beck Cabin and Telluride Cabin, highlights the importance of the land for federal management and seasonal grazing. Water sources like Bullion Creek, which features the notable Bullion Falls, carve deep canyons through ridges such as Beecher Ridge and Bosman Ridge.
