1968 Map of Bonnie Claire

USGS Topo · Published 1981

About this map

The settlement of Bonnie Claire stands as a focal point of activity in the high desert of Nye County, evidenced by the presence of nearby Graves and an Old Railroad Grade that speaks to former transport links. Industrial history is etched into the landscape at the Smelting Furnace (Aban'd), reflecting the era's mining and processing efforts. The topography is dominated by the wide expanse of the Sarcobatus Flat (Depression) and an Alkali Flat, which are bordered to the west by the rising slopes of the Grapevine Mountains. Water sources are sparse in this arid region, with Coyote Holes providing a rare named landmark. Modern transit is represented by U.S. 95, which cuts through the northeastern corner, contrasting with the older infrastructure that once served the local population and its mineral industry.
