About this map

Eighteenmile House (Site) stands as a lonely historical marker in this 1990 provisional study, situated where the Newark Valley meets the high ground. The terrain is defined by the stark intersection of the Black Point Range and the Pancake Range, showing a landscape heavily shaped by both natural drainage and human resource extraction. Resource exploration is evident through scattered Prospect labels and a Mine Shaft, alongside industrial features like a Quarry and Gravel Pit. The map captures the vital role of water management in this arid White Pine County environment, noting numerous Wells, including the named Black Shade Well, and several Stock Ponds and Springs. These features, along with a marked Corral, suggest a ranching economy that persisted long after the primary activity at the Eighteenmile House site had ceased.
