1909 Map of Hawthorne
USGS Topo · Published 1955About this map
The Walker Lake basin and the surrounding high desert of Nevada and eastern California are documented here during a period of significant mining and rail activity. The Nevada and California railroad line skirts the eastern shore of the lake, connecting the county seat of Hawthorne to important industrial junctions like Thorne and Luning. Further south, the map reveals the complex infrastructure of early 20th-century extraction, featuring the Southern Pacific System rail lines that served the salt and mineral deposits at Rhodes Salt Marsh and the Teels Marsh.
