1965 Map of Hot Pot

USGS Topo · Published 1967

About this map

Geothermal features define this high-desert landscape along the border of Humboldt Co and Lander Co. The map is centered on the distinct terrain of the Hot Pot, a name given to a specific geothermal mound located just north of the Hot Springs. This area represents a characteristic Great Basin environment where water sources are critical landmarks for navigation and survival. Apart from the central springs, the presence of a Well and routes leading to the Izzenhood Ranch and the Hot Springs Ranch suggest a landscape organized around isolated ranching outposts. The topographic detail captures the arid basin's varied elevations, providing an essential record of the local water resources and infrastructure as they existed in the mid-1960s, prior to significant modern development in the region.
