2011 Map of Sappington

About this map

The Jefferson River winds through this landscape, defining the corridor for the settlement of Sappington and its surrounding agricultural and mining interests. This 2011 survey reveals a landscape where ranching and resource extraction coexist, with properties such as Woodward Ranch, Lamb Ranch, and Clark Ranch anchoring the rural economy. Significant mineral exploration is evident in the southeastern corner, where the Sappington Mica Mine, Harrison Highway Mine, and the Sand Creek Shafts reflect a history of industrial activity along the drainage of Sand Creek. The terrain is marked by prominent landmarks like Dolomite Knob and the London Hills, while water management is highlighted by structures such as Hemund Dam and the George Hemund Dam. Genealogists will find the Sappington Cemetery a key local landmark, situated just south of the main settlement near the river's bend.
