1980 Map of Cole Spring

USGS Topo · Published 1983

About this map

The Cedar Mountains dominate the western landscape of this high-desert region, where the triple-border of Mineral, Esmeralda, and Nye counties meet. The central terrain is defined by the broad Cirac Valley, which separates the mountains from the Royston Hills to the northeast. Human activity is sparse and primarily industrial, evidenced by a quarry and scattered prospects indicating mineral exploration throughout these highlands. At the foot of the hills lies Cole Spring, a critical water source in an otherwise arid environment. Navigation across this basin and range country is facilitated by a network of jeep trails that traverse the lower elevations of the Monte Cristo (Depression), showing the limited but purposeful infrastructure of the early 1980s.
