1885 Map of Sevier Desert

USGS Topo · Published 1911

About this map

Mining settlements and early frontier outposts define this 1880s survey of the arid basin across Juab and Millard counties. The Tintic Mountains in the northeast are particularly dense with activity, showing the proximity of Silver City, Diamond City, and Tintic, which served as the hub for one of the state's most productive mining districts. The survival of these communities relied on the thin threads of water provided by Cherry Creek and Cataract Creek.
