1994 Map of Anchorite Hills

USGS Topo · Published 1997

About this map

Toiyabe National Forest dominates this high-altitude landscape along the border of Nevada and California. The 1994 survey highlights the complex terrain of the Anchorite Hills and the northern reaches of the Excelsior Mountains, separated by high-desert features like Little Whisky Flat and Alkali Valley. A significant historical marker is the Von Schmidt Boundary (1873), which slices through the lower-left corner of the map, delineating the state line as surveyed in the late 19th century. The area is marked by several mineral extraction attempts, evidenced by numerous Prospects scattered near Long Valley and the northern ridges. Transportation is limited to rugged 4WD routes, including the one traversing Anchorite Pass, reflecting the area's isolated and utilitarian character at the end of the 20th century.
