1965 Map of Hot Pot

USGS Topo · Published 1981

About this map

Hot Pot and the surrounding Hot Springs define this high-desert basin along the border of Humboldt and Lander Counties. This 1965 survey, updated with 1981 revisions, documents a largely unpopulated landscape where geothermal activity and subsurface water are the primary points of interest. The presence of a isolated Well suggests the ongoing importance of water resources for cattle ranching or mineral exploration in this arid stretch of Nevada. The topography is characterized by subtle drainage patterns and elevation changes, illustrating the transition from flat basin floors to the rising foothills. The lack of established settlements emphasizes the remote nature of this region during the mid-to-late 20th century.
