1979 Map of Fish Springs

USGS Topo · Published 1979

About this map

The Fish Springs National Wildlife Refuge anchors the center of this 1979 survey, showcasing an intricate network of pools like Pruess Pool, Shoveler Pool, and Mallard Pool amidst the arid Fish Springs Flat. This landscape is one of extreme transitions, where the high elevations of the Deep Creek Range—including Ibapah Peak and Haystack Peak—overlook the sweeping Snake Valley and the vast Great Salt Lake Desert. The map documents a sparsely populated interior Utah, highlighting small settlements such as Partoun and Callao, along with historic points of interest like Boyd Station. Mining activity is evident throughout the ranges, with named sites including the Emma Mine, Cactus Mine, and Bell Hill Mine in the Thomas Range near Topaz Mountain. Large federal tracts, including the Goshute Indian Reservation and the Dugway Proving Ground, define the region's land use and restricted access during the late twentieth century.
