Cherry Creek Range rises sharply above the high desert floor in this detailed 1982 provisional study of White Pine County. The settlement at Hunter Point serves as a lone landmark where the mountain slopes meet the wide expanse of Butte Valley. The terrain transitions from the steep, contoured ridges of the range down into the open basin of Hunter Flat, reflecting the characteristic basin-and-range geography of eastern Nevada. Human activity is sparsely recorded here, evidenced by a solitary Prospect and the infrastructure of Hunter Tank at the edge of the valley. This survey was compiled from aerial photography taken in the mid-1970s, capturing the remote landscape before modern digital revisions.
