1968 Map of Gold Point

USGS Topo · Published 1970

About this map

The high-desert mining landscape of Slate Ridge and Gold Mountain dominates this late-1960s survey of southern Esmeralda County. The area’s extractive history is etched into the terrain, centered on the settlement of Gold Point and the numerous workings scattered across the slopes, including the Dunfee Shaft, Alberta Mine, and Empress Mine. These sites, linked by a network of jeep trails and pack trails, reflect the persistent search for minerals in this arid corner of Nevada.
