1983 Map of Adelaide

About this map

Adelaide and its surrounding mining history define this high-elevation landscape in the early 1980s. The settlement is centered near the Adelaide Crown Mines and a mill site, reflecting a period of active or legacy resource extraction along the eastern slopes. Higher elevations are dominated by the Sonoma Range and Sonoma Peak, where the terrain transitions into complex drainages such as Goldrun Creek and Robber Creek. Evidence of grazing and local land use is scattered throughout the canyons and flats, indicated by features like Sibbald Corral, Rock Creek Ranch, and the George Baine Meadows. A network of 4WD tracks and a pipeline trace the utilitarian infrastructure of the Great Basin, connecting remote water sources like Reinhart Spring and Cumberland Spring to the lower basins. The map illustrates the functional relationship between the high peaks and the mining claims that drove the local economy.
