1961 Map of Fencemaker

USGS Topo · Published 1963

About this map

Stillwater Range and Fencemaker Range dominate this Nevada landscape, where the high ridgelines overlook the expansive Buena Vista Valley and Dixie Valley. The 1961 field surveys capture a remote section of Pershing and Churchill Counties, documenting a network of springs and passes essential for movement through the high desert. Evidence of early habitation and resource extraction is found at Fencemaker Camp and the nearby Gilberts Mine, while isolated settlements like Grayson and Bowen appear along the mountain flanks.
