1964 Map of Sheep Peak

USGS Topo · Published 1967

About this map

Sierra Diablo dominates this landscape, marking the transition from the high ridges of the Trans-Pecos into the arid flats of the Millican Hills. Surveyed in the mid-1960s, the map reveals a rugged ranching and mining economy defined by isolated outposts and precarious water sources. Small-scale mining operations are concentrated south of the Wood Canyon area, including the Mohawk Mine and the Sancho Panza Mine. These extraction points, along with the Blackshaft Mine and Hazel Mine, suggest a period of active exploration for silver or copper ores within the limestone fault blocks.
