1965 Map of Cherry Creek SE

USGS Topo · Published 1967

About this map

Buffalo Valley dominates this 1965 survey, a basin where three Nevada counties—Pershing, Humboldt, and Lander—converge. The arid terrain is primarily shaped by seasonal drainage patterns, most notably Cherry Creek and Timber Creek, which descend from the surrounding high ground toward the valley floor. In the southeastern portion of the quadrangle, a lone Prospect indicates the mineral exploration typical of the region during this mid-century period. The map meticulously records numerous elevation benchmarks (BM) and unimproved dirt tracks that served as the primary transit routes through this sparse landscape, providing a clear record of the area's geography before later development or land-use changes.
