About this map

The Route of Elko-Hamilton Stage Lines traces a path through the western flats of this 1990 survey, marking a historic corridor of transit across the high desert. Situated at the intersection of the Ruby Mountains and the northern reaches of the White Pine Range, the terrain is defined by its water scarcity and significant topographical shifts. Sparse water sources such as Dry Mountain Well and Goicoechea Well indicate the reliance on localized groundwater for ranching or travel through the Newark Valley. Between the steep rise of Dry Mountain and the floor of Long Valley, the map records industrial markers like a Drill Hole and a Gravel Pit, while Beck Pass serves as a critical natural notch through the mountain ridges.
