1950 Map of Silver Peak

USGS Topo · Published 1977

About this map

Silver Peak dominates the center of this Iron County landscape, where the high ridges of the Antelope Range meet a network of steep drainages. The topography here reflects a history of mineral interests, as evidenced by the presence of Bullion Canyon and Chloride Canyon in the northern reaches. These labels, paired with the massive southern anchor of Iron Mountain, speak to the region's long-standing connection to the mining industry during the mid-20th century. Surface water is sparse, restricted to specific points like Sand Spring and Joel Spring, which provided essential resources in an otherwise arid terrain. To the south, the landscape shifts toward the Red Hills and the broad course of The Dry Wash, illustrating the varied geological character of this corner of Utah.
