1910 Map of Carson Sink

USGS Topo · Published 1934

About this map

Fallon stands as the agricultural hub of this high desert landscape, situated at the junction where the Carson River feeds into a network of canals and old channels. The map captures the region's hydrographic complexity, from the expansive Carson Sink to the disappearing waters of Humboldt Lake and Carson Lake. Beyond the irrigated valleys, the terrain is defined by the industrial extraction of Nevada's mineral wealth, evidenced by the Borax Works on Fourmile Flat and hard-rock operations like the Nevada Hills Mine near Fairview.
