Crescent Valley and the surrounding high desert of central Nevada are captured here during the late twentieth century, showing a landscape defined by industrial mining and vast drainage basins. The map documents the corridors of the Southern Pacific and Western Pacific railroads as they track the northern reaches near Beowawe. These transportation lines contrast with the more isolated settlements like Tenabo and Cortez, which are situated near the prominent Shoshone Range and Cortez Mountains. Numerous labels for mines throughout these peaks reflect the region's enduring reliance on mineral extraction.
