About this map

Mining operations and arid water systems define this stretch of Beaver County at the start of the 21st century. The landscape is anchored by the Beaver Lake Mountains to the north and the Star Range in the south, with numerous industrial sites reflecting the area's geological wealth. Notable extraction points including the Carbonate Mine, Beaver-Harrison Mine, and OK Mine are scattered across the terrain, connected by a network of drainage features like Carbonate Gulch and Hickory Wash. The sparse settlement of Blueacre stands near the northeastern peaks, while the hydrologic footprint of The Big Wash and The Big Wash Reservoir provides a clear view of how water is managed in this desert environment. For the local historian, the map reveals the placement of historical mining claims like the Wild Bill Mine in relation to the evolving road infrastructure of the modern era.
