USGS Topo · Published 1980About this map
Ophir sits at the head of a canyon on the western slopes of the Oquirrh Mountains, a location defined by the intensive extraction of silver and other minerals. This 1980 survey illustrates the complex industrial footprint of the district, where Tailings Ponds and numerous Mines, including the Montana Mine, dot the steep terrain around Dry Mountain and Lion Hill. The map captures the stark transition from these high-altitude mining operations to the expansive floor of Rush Valley below.
