1968 Map of Crow Springs

USGS Topo · Published 1970

About this map

The Monte Cristo Range dominates the western half of this Nevada landscape, where the high peaks of the Great Basin descend into the wide expanses of the Big Smoky Valley. This 1968 survey documents a remote mining and exploration environment, centered on the reliable water source at Crow Springs. The terrain is marked by the scars of industrial mineral exploration, from high-altitude Quarries and a Quarry in the north to scattered Prospects and a Drill Hole further east. A network of Jeep Trails provides the primary access through the steep draws beneath Doyle Peak. Near the valley floor, several benchmark locations like BM 4772 and a Gravel Pit indicate the logistical points for road maintenance and resource extraction during this mid-century period.
