1954 Map of Miners Delight

USGS Topo · Published 1979

About this map

The gold-mining legacy of Fremont County is etched into the landscape surrounding Miners Delight. This mid-century survey, updated in the late 1970s, captures the rugged interior of the Shoshone National Forest where prospectors once sought their fortunes. Dozens of gulches, including Arasta Gulch, Baltic Gulch, and Promise Gulch, speak to the extensive hydraulic and lode mining operations of previous generations. Significant industrial landmarks such as the Gold Dollar Mine, Caribou Mine, and the Miners Delight Mine are meticulously plotted alongside Peabody Ridge.
