1956 Map of Tuscarora

USGS Topo · Published 1972

About this map

Tuscarora sits at the foot of the Independence Mountains, serving as the primary hub for this high-desert mining and ranching landscape during the mid-1950s. The settlement's mining heritage is clearly visible in the surrounding hills, where operations like the Commonwealth Mine, Queen Mine, and Grand Prize Mine are situated near a local Cem and Landing Strip. The map reveals a land divided between industrial extraction and vast livestock operations, with Spanish Ranch and Quarter Circle S Ranch anchoring the open basins.
