1972 Map of Mosey Mtn

About this map

The high desert terrain of the Cedar Range dominates this 1970s survey, defined by a network of drainage washes and isolated water sources. Evidence of mineral exploration is concentrated near Mine Wash, where a Mine and several Prospects indicate the local search for resources. The landscape is marked by prominent landforms such as The Big Hogback and Empty Mountain, with movement through the area dictated by a series of primitive routes labeled simply as Jeep Trail. Water availability, critical in this arid environment, is pinpointed at scattered locations including Keel Spring, Chokecherry Spring, and Buckboard Spring. These sites, along with the broad Miller Bench, provide a detailed look at the geographic orientation and resource extraction attempts in this part of Lincoln County.
