1972 Map of Swasey Peak
USGS Topo · Published 1974About this map
Swasey Mountain dominates this portion of the House Range, where a network of springs provided essential water for high-desert survival and movement. The geography here is marked by deep cuts such as Box Canyon and Sinbad Canyon, leading down from the prominent Swasey Peak. One of the most intriguing historical sites is the Robbers Roost (Cave) and its associated Robbers Roost Spring, suggesting the area's utility as a secluded refuge. The presence of Prospects in the northeast and a Corral near Swasey Bottom indicates a landscape used for both small-scale mining and livestock management. This 1970s survey captures a moment when the rugged interior was accessible only by a Pack Trail or Jeep Trail, preserving the character of a frontier environment before more modern development.
