1989 Map of Delano Peak

About this map

Delano Mountains rise sharply in this northeastern Nevada landscape, dominated by the prominent Delano Peak and a network of deep drainage canyons. The area's ranching heritage is anchored by the Twentyone Mile Ranch and Eighteenmile Ranch, positioned near vital water sources like Thousand Springs Creek and the Twentyone Mile Dam. The terrain is marked by numerous prospects on the slopes of the peaks, indicating the area's mineral exploration history during the late twentieth century. Transportation in this high-desert environment is represented by a remote Landing Strip and a series of unimproved trails following natural features like Division Canyon and Eighteenmile Canyon. This survey captures the spatial relationship between isolated livestock operations and the high-elevation springs, such as Indian Spring, that sustain them in the arid Elko County interior.
