1986 Map of Dugout Spring

USGS Topo · Published 1986

About this map

Cortez Mtns and the Simpson Park Mtns dominate this central Nevada landscape, separated by the high-elevation passage at Garden Gate Pass. This mid-1980s survey captures a region defined by its rugged topography and isolated outposts, where the Lander Co Eureka Co line bisects the arid terrain of Grass Valley and Pine Valley. Evidence of the area's resource-driven economy is clear from the numerous Prospects and Gravel Pit sites scattered across the Dry Hills. Water, the most critical resource for survival in the Alkali Flat surroundings, is represented by established points like Dugout Spring. The map also documents long-standing ranching operations such as Horse Ranch and Issacs Ranch, which sit near the mouths of Horse Canyon and Hog Canyon, marking where human habitation follows the natural drainage of the desert mountains.
