1990 Map of Currant Mountain

USGS Topo · Published 1990

About this map

Currant Mountain dominates the high-altitude topography of this Nevada study, where the boundary between White Pine and Nye counties cuts across the high ridges of the Humboldt National Forest. The landscape is defined by steep drainage basins and isolated water sources that were critical to early regional movement and survival, including Limerock Spring and Vanover Spring. In the lower elevations, small-scale mineral exploration is evident by a lonely Prospect near Broom Canyon, signaling the persistent search for ore in the Great Basin. The network of canyons, such as White River Pass Canyon and Blackrock Canyon, provides a clear view of the natural corridors used to navigate this complex terrain before modern infrastructure reached the interior of the range.
