1963 Map of Silverpeak

USGS Topo · Published 1974

About this map

Silverpeak stands at the southern edge of this 1963 survey, serving as a focal point for industrial activity evidenced by its Substation and proximity to Tailings Ponds. The desert landscape is defined by the stark transition from the Big Smoky Valley to the uplifted Mineral Ridge and the Silver Peak Range. A significant historical trace is found in the Old Railroad Grade, which snakes northward toward the former settlement of Blair, connecting the mining operations of the hills to the valley floor. To the east, the Weepah Hills hide the community of Weepah and several prospects, reflecting the era's persistent mineral exploration. Geological landmarks like The Monocline and The Crater disrupt the flat expanse of Clayton Valley, where Angel Island and Goat Island rise as prominent topographic features amidst the arid surroundings.
