About this map

Silver La Donna Mine and the Anderson Mine sit at the southern end of this mountainous Powell County landscape, where the headwaters of Brock Creek and its tributaries carve through the terrain. This 2011 survey captures a region defined by high-elevation landmarks such as Old Baldy Mountain and the White Rocks Mountain in the southeast corner. The extraction history of the area is evident through several named mining sites, including the Relyea Mine and the NE NW Section 7 Mine, which are accessed by limited infrastructure like Brock Creek Rd.

The drainage patterns of the Garnet Range are prominent here, with Gallagher Creek and Warm Springs Creek flowing through central portions of the map. High-altitude clearings and features like Cottonwood Meadow, Mannix Park, and the Fourth of July Ridge suggest the varied geography that transitions between dense timber and open mountain meadows. The namesake Windy Rock stands as a central navigation point overlooking the confluence of several local forks.
