1950 Map of The Three Peaks

USGS Topo · Published 1964

About this map

The Three Peaks anchor the southern portion of this landscape, rising prominently above the eastern edge of the Cedar Valley. This mid-century survey documents a region defined by its geology and early mineral exploration, evidenced by scattered prospects and a specific prospect site near the peaks. The industrial character of the area is further emphasized by the presence of the Union Pacific railroad corridor and Antelope Rd, which flank the perennial water sources of Iron Springs Creek and the notable Iron Springs area. To the north, the terrain transitions into the high ground of The Bald Hills and the narrow passage of Horse Hollow. A distinctive geological feature known as Hole in the Wall is also marked along the western ridgeline, offering a specific point of interest for those studying the physical history and early land navigation of Iron County.
