1984 Map of High Bald Peaks

About this map

Medicine Range dominates the eastern half of this high-altitude landscape in northeastern Nevada. As a provisional survey conducted in the early 1980s, the map highlights the stark reality of the Great Basin wilderness, where human infrastructure is largely confined to primitive transportation routes and livestock management. The High Bald Peaks define the northern topography, while the lower elevations are marked by a network of 4wd tracks that follow natural contours and drainage patterns. A singular point of interest, the Mat Tank Corral, indicates the area's continued use for open-range ranching. Survey markers like Bm 63 Dor 2019.3 provide precise elevation data for this segment of Elko County, documenting a region where the land remains largely defined by its geological features rather than permanent settlement.
