1988 Map of Grantsville

USGS Topo · Published 1988

About this map

The high-desert mining district of Grantsville is the focal point of this 1980s landscape, where industrial history meets the unique fossil beds of Berlin-Ichthyosaur State Park. The map documents a terrain heavily marked by silver and antimony extraction, particularly around the Grantsville Ridge and Richmond Hill areas. Mineral interest is evidenced by the concentration of deep workings like the Alexander Shafts and the Brooklyn Shaft, alongside numerous adits and open cut mines. In the eastern section, the Toiyabe National Forest covers high summits and deep drainages, including Grantsville Canyon and Milton Canyon. This era shows the persistence of remote outposts such as Milton Ranch, while the inclusion of a cemetery and various springs like Indian Garden Spring points to the area's long-term human habitation and reliance on scarce water sources in Indian Valley.
