1955 Map of Dromedary Peak

USGS Topo · Published 1971

About this map

Alta and the surrounding peaks of the Wasatch Range define this 1955 survey, which captures the area's transition from a historic mining district into a recreational landscape. The map is a dense record of subterranean industry, documenting dozens of workings such as the Silver Mountain Mine, Flagstaff Mine, and South Hecla Mine. These operations, along with numerous drainage structures like the Wasatch Drain Tunnel, follow the mineral-rich veins between the Big Cottonwood Creek and Little Cottonwood Creek drainages.
