1970 Map of Fossil Peak

USGS Topo · Published 1984

About this map

The Seaman Range and Hiko Range dominate this Nevada landscape, creating a dramatic corridor for the Pahranagat Valley. Surveyed in 1969 and field-checked in 1970, the map captures a topography defined by desert basins and isolated water sources. The White River flows through the Hiko Narrows, a critical geographic pinch point that funnels the waterway toward the John Wright Reservoir. To the south, the valley floor opens into Sixmile Flat, illustrating the vast, arid expanses characteristic of Lincoln County before significant modern development. The presence of Seaman Wash and Fossil Peak provides specific landmarks for geologists and researchers tracking the natural drainage and elevation patterns of the Great Basin during the late twentieth century.
