2011 Map of Lowe Peak

About this map

The Oquirrh Mountains form a high-altitude spine across this landscape, defining a region where the history of extraction and mountain transit converge. At the height of the range, industrial footprints remain visible through features like the Utah Metal Company Tunnel and the Old Mayflower Mine, which sit tucked into the canyons and hollows below the Butterfield Peaks. These sites indicate the intensive mining efforts that characterized the mineral-rich Oquirrh range during the late 19th and early 20th centuries.
