About this map

The Tuscarora Mountains dominate this high-desert landscape in northern Nevada, where the drainage systems of the South Fork Owyhee River and Big Cottonwood Canyon define the area's complex topography. This 1987 survey reveals a remote territory primarily utilized for resource extraction and seasonal grazing. The presence of the Divide Mines in the southern reaches, along with scattered Prospects, indicates the region's enduring connection to the mining industry.
