1972 Map of Ferguson Flat

USGS Topo · Published 1975

About this map

The Lead Mine Hills and the expansive Ferguson Flat anchor this 1970s survey of the high desert along the Nevada-Utah border. This landscape is defined by its military and industrial imprints, notably the Wendover Air Force Range and the Nevada Utah Military Reservation Boundary that bisects the terrain. Remote activity is evidenced by scattered prospects, a Borrow Pit, and isolated Ruins near the Springs (Salt). Drainage patterns like Dead Cedar Wash and Ferber Wash cut through the arid flats toward areas of Alkali or Mud, while a network of Jeep Trails provides the only access through the rugged interior. The map illustrates a transitional period of public land use where old mining efforts met modern military cordons in the Great Basin.
