1967 Map of Cobre

USGS Topo · Published 1971

About this map

The high desert junction of Cobre serves as a focal point for the region's transportation history, where the Southern Pacific and Nevada Northern railroads converge. This 1967 survey captures the sparse industrial landscape of the Goshute Valley, characterized by isolated settlements and a network of primitive transportation routes. To the west, Squaw Creek Ranch is situated near the drainage of Squaw Creek, while the small community of Oasis sits further south along a collection of Gravel Pits. The topography is marked by significant elevation changes, with numerous Jeep Trails and Landing Strips providing the only access to the remote terrain. This map documents a period when the rail economy still dictated the layout of Elko County’s outposts before the expansion of more modern highway infrastructure.
