1953 Map of Spanish Mine

USGS Topo · Published 1982

About this map

The Spanish Mine sits at the northern edge of the Ferris Mountains, marking a landscape defined by sharp elevation shifts and the essential management of water. This 1953 survey, updated with 1980 aerial data, reveals a network of ditches and pipelines cutting across the Arkansas Flats, indicating the vital role of irrigation and resource transport in this high-altitude environment. Several drainage systems, including Rush Creek and Arkansas Creek, flow northward from the mountain front, while named canyons like Pole Canyon and Miners Canyon carve through the southern slopes.
