2014 Map of Gillies Hill

About this map

Cunningham Hill and the rugged drainage of Cunningham Wash dominate the southern landscape of this 2014 survey. The terrain is defined by a series of prominent rises including Crater Knoll, Gillies Hill, and the volcanic-named Red Knoll to the north. These features overlook high-altitude plains like Maple Flats and the expansive Wildcat Fields. The presence of numerous watering points, such as Cowboy Spring, Hawks Nest Spring, and Wiregrass Spring, indicates the area's importance for livestock and wildlife in a high-desert environment. Natural watercourses like Wildcat Cr and Indian Cr are supplemented by the Manderfield Ditch, illustrating the managed irrigation essential to this part of Beaver County. Traceable routes like Wiregrass RD and Cunningham Wash RD navigate through the canyons and ridges of the Mineral Mountain range.
