About this map

Wassuk Range peaks dominate this late-twentieth-century landscape, where rugged topography meets industrial and military utility. The southern reaches of the Hawthorne Army Ammunition Depot occupy the northern terrain, while the southeastern corner reveals active resource extraction at the Borealis Mine and an adjacent Strip Mine. This area is characterized by high-elevation landmarks such as Big Indian Mountain and Corey Pk, connected by difficult 4wd routes and the historic Lucky Boy Pass. The transition from the protected slopes of the Toiyabe National Forest to the specialized mining zones reflects the region's historical reliance on both conservation and mineral wealth. Watercourses like Baldwin Canyon and Corey Creek drain these steep slopes, creating a network of natural corridors through the high desert peaks.
