1964 Map of Florida Gap

USGS Topo · Published 1982

About this map

The Little Florida Mountains dominate this 1964 desert landscape, characterized by dramatic rock formations and early resource extraction. The community of Lewis Flats serves as a small hub on the northeastern plains, anchored by the Lewis Flats Sch, Lewis Flats Ch, and the nearby Lewis Cem. This area reveals a history of both leisure and industry, with the established Rock Hound State Park positioned just north of several mineral operations. Mining activity is evident throughout the foothills, from the West Mine and its associated Tailings Ponds to the Bradley Mines and various prospects scattered near Coyote Canyon. Notable landmarks like the Indian Post Office, Castle Rock, and the Needles Eye provide navigational waypoints across the arid terrain of the Florida Gap.
