1964 Map of Flanigan

USGS Topo · Published 1978

About this map

The settlement of Flanigan sits at a critical junction of the High Desert rail network in the early 1960s, where the Southern Pacific and Western Pacific rail lines converge. Located along the eastern edge of the Honey Lake basin near the California-Nevada border, this arid landscape is defined by its infrastructure and scattered water sources. The presence of the Bonham Sch near the tracks indicates the community center that once supported the families of railroad workers and local ranchers. Isolated water points like High Rock Well and Flanigan Well are vital markers in this dry terrain, illustrating the sparse but strategic settlement pattern required to maintain transcontinental transport routes through the Great Basin.
