1960 Map of Notch Peak

USGS Topo · Published 1985

About this map

The House Range dominates this mid-century landscape in Millard County, characterized by a complex network of canyons and high ridges. Significant elevation changes are marked by Notch Peak and Sawtooth Mountain, while the lowlands of Tule Valley and Little Valley flank the central massif. The map documents sparse but essential water sources in this arid environment, including Painter Spring and Watsons Cow Pond, which likely supported local ranching or prospecting efforts. Mining activity is evident through the Klondike Mine, Brown Queen Mine, and various Placer Mines located near the Amasa Valley. The distribution of these sites along Miller Canyon and Marjum Canyon suggests a period of exploratory resource extraction focused on the steep drainages of the range. Trails and passes like Sneakover Pass and Skull Rock Pass provide the primary means of navigating through the high country, connecting the more accessible basins to points like Hell'n Maria Kitchen.
