1985 Map of Ferris Creek

About this map

The high slopes of the Shoshone Range dominate this Nevada landscape, revealing a region defined by late-twentieth-century mineral exploration and extraction. Centered on the Utah Mine Camp, the map documents a network of mining operations including the Clipper Mine, the Utah Mine, and numerous Mine Shaft locations. The terrain is deeply incised by a drainage system comprising Grouse Creek, Chicken Creek, and Indian Creek, with small seasonal water sources like North Fork Mill Creek and Ferris Creek carving through the mountain slopes. The abundance of labels marked Prospects and Prospect across the topography suggests an era of intense geological survey and potential development. Industrial features such as a Tailings Pond and various Open Pit sites appear alongside signs of rangeland use like a Corral, illustrating the dual utility of this Lander County environment.
