1989 Map of Cattle Spring

About this map

Nellis Air Force Range (Restricted Area) dominates this Lincoln County terrain, where high-desert military airspace meets the isolated topography of the Great Basin. This 1989 provisional study documents a landscape defined by sharp elevation shifts between the flat expanse of Emigrant Valley to the west and the rising peaks of the Groom Range to the east. A single Mine Shaft and the namesake Cattle Spring represent the few physical landmarks in this high-security zone, illustrating the historical intersection of early prospecting and grazing with modern restricted defense operations. The map provides a precise view of the township and range lines, such as R 55 E T 5 S, marking the remote interior of the Nevada desert during the late Cold War era.
