1972 Map of Goshute Canyon

About this map

The Deep Creek Range dominates this landscape, its steep eastern slopes falling toward the desert floor along the border of Tooele and Juab counties. This 1970s survey captures a high-desert environment where water is the primary driver of human presence, marked by a string of reliable sources including Eightmile Spring and Rock Springs. The map reveals the early industrial footprint in the mountains, notably the Eagles Nest Mine and the Oro del Rey Mine, while Indian Squaw Rock stands as a prominent natural landmark in the southern reaches.
