1972 Map of Hyde Well

USGS Topo · Published 1974

About this map

Hamlin Valley defines this arid landscape in eastern Nevada, where the 1972 survey documents a reliance on scattered water sources and seasonal drainages. The area is characterized by a series of high-desert basins and the rising slopes of the Limestone Hills to the southwest. Human presence is evidenced primarily by ranching and livestock infrastructure, centered around essential water points like Hyde Well, Monument Well, and Rosencrans Well. This network of wells, connected by a simple Jeep Tr, illustrates the practical challenges of sustaining movement and industry across this remote terrain. Seasonal water features, including Hyde Wash and Hamlin Valley Wash, trace the natural hydrology that dictated the placement of sites like the Water Tank Corral. The map provides a clear look at the sparse, functional layout of the region during the early 1970s.
