1953 Map of Muddy Peak
USGS Topo · Published 1954About this map
Industrial extraction and geologic landmarks define this desert landscape in the early 1950s. The American Borax Co Mines and the Colorock Quarry are primary points of human activity, connected to the broader region by the American Borax Road and the Arrowhead Trail. These routes navigate a complex topography of ridges and basins, including the high point at Muddy Peak and the unique formations of the Valley of Fire to the northeast.
