About this map

Stockton occupies a strategic position at the edge of the Tooele Valley, where the steep slopes of the Oquirrh Mountains meet the basin floor. This landscape is defined by its deep canyons and mining history, evidenced by Mining Rd, Calumet Mine Rd, and Dry Canyon Mining Rd. The mountain front is carved by drainage systems like Settlement Canyon and Soldier Canyon, which funnel toward the valley.

Further south, the map reveals Jacob City and landmarks such as Bald Mtn and Sharp Mtn, illustrating the transition into more isolated high-elevation terrain. Historical traces such as the Stockton Cem and the distinctive geological feature of the Stockton Bar provide important context for the development of this region. The industrial character of the era is reflected in the numerous prospection routes like Dry Fk Prospect Rd and Prospect Rd that honeycomb the western Oquirrh foothills.
