1967 Map of Crater Island NW

USGS Topo · Published 1972

About this map

The Pilot Range dominates the western edge of this 1967 survey, where steep terrain gives way to the expansive Alkali Flat to the east. Water resources appear critical in this arid landscape, evidenced by the presence of an Aqueduct and multiple Tunnels in the northern sections, likely linked to livestock or mineral interests. The map documents several named water sources along the mountain slopes, including Patterson Pass Spring and McLaughlin Spring. Transportation is limited to a network of Jeep Trails that navigate the high ridges and deep cuts of Mc Ginty Canyon and Birch Canyon. This topographic study provides a clear view of the relationship between the elevated Mc Ginty Ridge and the low-lying basin floor near Lemay Island before modern developments altered these remote desert corridors.
