1969 Map of Alamo

About this map

Alamo serves as the hub of the high desert landscape during this late-1960s survey, centered in the Pahranagat Valley. Education and community life are focused at the Pahranagat Valley Sch and Pahranagat HS, while the nearby Rodeo Grounds and Alamo Landing Field suggest the local economic and recreational activities of the era. The valley's critical water resources are documented through features like Grove Spring and the Upper Pahranagat Spillway, which feeds into the Pahranagat National Wildlife Refuge. To the west, the steep elevations of the East Pahranagat Range overlook the valley floor, where a solitary Prospect and scattered Ruins hint at earlier efforts to work this arid terrain. The map also traces the infrastructure of the period, including a network of Jeep Trails and the working Buckhorn Ranch.
