1968 Map of Bonnie Claire NW

USGS Topo · Published 1970

About this map

Bonnie Claire Flat dominates the center of this high-desert landscape on the border of Esmeralda County and Nye County. The 1968 topography captures a remote region defined by ephemeral basins and industrial traces, notably the Old RR Grade cutting through the eastern corridor. Transportation history is further marked by the Bonnie Claire Airport and a series of rugged paths like the Jeep Trail. To the south, the terrain rises sharply into the Grapevine Mountains, overlooking the vast Bonnie Claire Lake bed and the adjacent Landing Strip Depression. This survey provides a precise record of the Great Basin’s desert-floor hydrology and the remnants of early twentieth-century rail infrastructure that once served this isolated corner of Nevada.
