1945 Map of Inspiration

USGS Topo · Published 1971

About this map

Industrial copper extraction dominates this 1945 landscape, centered on the sprawling operations of the Castle Dome Mine and the community of Inspiration. The map details a complex network of tunnels and shafts, including the Scanlon Tunnel, Bonanza Tunnel, and the Inspiration Main Shafts near the Leaching Plant. To the southeast, the town of Miami serves as a hub for the Southern Pacific railroad, which skirts the southern edge of the mining district.
