1983 Map of Solomons Knob

About this map

Telegraph Mine and the Wyoming Mine anchor this desert landscape, reflecting the persistent mining activity found in the Mojave region during the late twentieth century. Located near Halloran Summit, these sites are surrounded by a network of drainage systems like Halloran Wash and Bull Spring Wash. The terrain is dominated by the prominent peak of Solomons Knob, while the expansive Shadow Valley stretches across the eastern half of the sheet. Critical desert water sources such as Francis Spring and Bull Spring are meticulously recorded, alongside modern landmarks like a Radio Facility. The map provides a clear look at the arid topography and the industrial footprints left by prospectors and mining operations in this corner of San Bernardino County.
