1967 Map of Fish Springs SW

USGS Topo · Published 1971

About this map

Mining operations and historical markers define this desert landscape within the Fish Springs Range. Along the western slopes, numerous sites such as the Galena Mine, Utah Mine, and Emma Mine indicate a period of intense mineral exploration, accompanied by a small Cem and the Cactus Mine further south. The contrast between the elevated mining claims and the low-lying Fish Springs Flat to the east is stark, where the desert gives way to the managed wetlands of the Fish Springs National Wildlife Refuge. This water-rich environment features a complex of pools including Pintail Pool and Mallard Pool. Historical transit is preserved through the alignment of the Pony Express Road, which passes the Pony Express Monument, marking the intersection of pioneer-era communication and mid-century land management near the Refuge Headquarters.
