1971 Map of Bristol Well

USGS Topo · Published 1986

About this map

Bristol Well serves as a focal point in this high-desert landscape of Lincoln County, where the industrial history of mining and processing is visible through various Prospects and Mine symbols. The presence of Charcoal Kilns near the Corrals suggests early metallurgy and livestock operations, while the surrounding terrain is dominated by the West Range and Bristol Range. To the west, the broad expanse of Dry Lake Valley is cut by seasonal drainages such as Silverhorn Wash and Coyote Wash. The map records a series of jeep trails weaving through Bristol Pass, connecting remote water sources like Blind Mountain Spring and Middle Reservoir. This survey provides a precise look at the 1970s land use, capturing the rugged intersection of traditional ranching and mineral exploration.
