1954 Map of Tintic Mountain

USGS Topo · Published 1956

About this map

The Tintic Mountains of central Utah reveal a landscape shaped by mineral extraction and high-desert ranching during the mid-1950s. High-altitude mining operations such as the Evelyn Mine, Rising Sun Mine, and Buckeye Mine cluster near the northern peaks, while the Tintic Chief Mine sits further south near Paul Bunyans Woodpile, a unique basalt geological formation. Settlement is sparse, represented by locations like Garbett and Hancock Ranch on the edge of Goshen Valley. The map detail shows a complex network of springs and canyons, including Jumpoff Spring and Furner Canyon, which provided critical water in this arid environment. Industrial infrastructure of the period is visible through the pipe line traversing the terrain and the Dennis Road connecting remote outposts like Dennis.
