1949 Map of Crescent Valley

About this map

Gold Acres and the surrounding mining landscape of the Shoshone Range define this mid-century survey of the Nevada interior. The map documents a transition in resource extraction, showing the active Gold Acres Mine alongside several dormant operations like the Lovie Mine and Tomcat Mine. This region, split by the Lander and Eureka County line, reveals a sparse but vital industrial infrastructure, including a prominent Pipe Line and a series of water sources such as Mud Spring and Rock Spring that supported high-desert operations.
