1951 Map of Desert Mound

USGS Topo · Published 1951

About this map

Desert Mound sits at a critical industrial junction where the Union Pacific railroad met the extraction demands of mid-century Southern Utah. The map reveals a landscape defined by large-scale mining operations, specifically the prominent Open Pit Iron Mine and its associated Mine Dump. To the southwest, the terrain transitions into the high peaks of Iron Mountain and the Swett Hills, where the Homestake Mine (Inactive) points to an earlier era of resource exploration.
