1955 Map of Park City West

About this map

The silver-mining legacy of the Wasatch Mountains is preserved here in high detail, centered on the high ridges surrounding Park City. This 1955 survey, with mid-1970s updates, captures the industrial transition from hard-rock mining to alpine recreation. To the south, heavy industrial features like the Silver King Mine, the Western Monitor Shaft, and a series of deep drainage and haulage passages including the Creole Tunnel and Judge Tunnel underscore the intensive subterranean activity that once drove the local economy.
