About this map

Antelope Valley defines the western expanse of this high-desert landscape in the early 1980s, where the boundary between Elko Co and White Pine Co crosses an arid basin. The map reveals the critical importance of water management in this livestock-grazing region, centered on Ayarbe Spring and its associated tank. These isolated water sources, along with Domingo Well to the north, are the primary markers of human utility in an otherwise open range. To the east, the terrain transitions into the heavily eroded Badlands, a complex network of ridges and drainages that contrast with the broader valley floor. A thin network of Jeep Trails provides the only passage through this remote Great Basin topography, illustrating the sparse settlement and rugged isolation characteristic of northeastern Nevada during this era.
