About this map

The Dead Camel Mountains rise above the high desert floor, overlooking a landscape defined by historic transit routes and the basin of Churchill Valley. This mid-1980s map documents a significant intersection of western history, showing the path of the Pony Express Road and the Simpson Express Road as they cross the arid terrain south of the Lahonton Reservoir. The presence of Desert Station and Hooten Well underscores the critical importance of reliable water and relay points in this portion of the Great Basin.
