1985 Map of Goat Ranch Well

USGS Topo · Published 1986

About this map

Railroad Valley dominates the central portion of this mid-1980s survey, illustrating a typical Great Basin landscape of wide basins and sudden mountain ranges. The eastern edge of the map rises into the Quinn Canyon Range, where the terrain ascends towards Red Hill. This area is characterized by sparse water resources, highlighted by the centrally located Goat Ranch Well, which serves as a critical landmark in an otherwise arid expanse. Small-scale industrial activity is evidenced by a Gravel Pit located north of the well. The map reveals the intricate network of unimproved roads and trails that connected these remote ranching and resource sites during the late twentieth century, showing how human presence adapted to the vast, open geography of Nye County.
