About this map

Mining operations for quicksilver and gold dominate the rugged high-desert landscape of the Humboldt Range in this mid-century survey. The western slopes are dotted with significant industrial sites, including the Nevada Quicksilver Mine, the Pershing Quicksilver Mine, and the Hollywood Mine, reflecting the mineral importance of this region to the Nevada Bureau of Mines. These remote outposts were linked to the wider world by an Airway Beacon and a network of primitive routes across the Packard Flat.
