1962 Map of Elko East

USGS Topo · Published 1974

About this map

The Humboldt River winds through this Great Basin landscape, serving as a vital corridor for transportation and settlement in northeastern Nevada. During the early 1960s, the eastern outskirts of Elko began to take shape, showing the city's early expansion toward the Humboldt River. The map provides a clear look at the local infrastructure during this period, including the small settlement of Kittridge and the various drainage patterns defined by the local Creek. This area represents a classic example of Nevada's high-desert geography where water sources dictate the placement of human activity and rail lines, reflecting the transition from mid-century ranching roots to a growing regional hub.
