1975 Map of Carlin NE

USGS Topo · Published 1979

About this map

Carlin sits at the western edge of this orthophotoquad, where the landscape transitions from a structured town grid into the steep, deeply eroded terrain of the Nevada desert. The Humboldt River snakes eastward through the center of the sheet, carving the dramatic Carlin Canyon as it cuts through the mountains. This 1975 aerial perspective reveals the critical transportation corridor of the era, showing Interstate 80 running parallel to the river and the historic railroad routes that originally established the town as a vital division point. To the south, the topography rises sharply toward Buckskin Mtn., with the drainage of Woodruff Creek defining the complex ridge and valley systems that dominate the southern half of the quadrangle.
