1970 Map of Deadman Spring SE

About this map

Dry Valley and the vast Dry Lake (Depression) characterize this high-desert landscape in eastern Nevada during the early 1970s. The terrain is defined by its arid hydrology, where ephemeral drainage systems like Coyote Wash and Wheatgrass Wash move water toward the central basin. Human activity is sparse and centered on water management for livestock, evidenced by several small-scale impoundments including Hirshi Reservoir No 2, Bristol Reservoir No 2, and Black Canyon Reservoir. The presence of a Corral and various Jeep Trails underscores the ranching and surveying history of this Lincoln County quadrangle, showing how the land was navigated and utilized before modern development. This survey provides a clear look at the infrastructure required to sustain life and industry in a region dominated by fluctuating water levels and expansive dry basins.
