1950 Map of Silver Peak

About this map

The Antelope Range and the northern reaches of the Iron Mountains dominate this high-desert landscape in southwestern Utah. Rising to a high point at Silver Peak, the terrain is defined by a series of steep drainages including Silver Canyon and Bullion Canyon, names that hint at the mineral exploration history of the region. The map shows a transition from the elevated peaks of the Red Hills down toward the south, where The Dry Wash and Little Pinto Creek cut through the lower basins.
