1984 Map of High Bald Peaks

About this map

The Medicine Range dominates this landscape in northeastern Nevada, where the high elevations of the High Bald Peaks define the local topography. This 1984 survey, published as a provisional edition, illustrates a largely undeveloped high-country environment characterized by a network of primitive 4wd routes and specific range infrastructure. The presence of the Mud Tank Corral indicates the importance of livestock management and grazing in these uplands. Precise surveying markers like BM 64 Dcr and BM 63 Dcr provide exact benchmark elevations for researchers tracing the historical geodetic control of the region during the late twentieth century.
