1951 Map of Illipah

USGS Topo · Published 1972

About this map

Illipah (Moorman Ranch) serves as a central landmark in this high-desert landscape of eastern Nevada during the early 1950s. The terrain is defined by the sharp verticality of the Butte Mountains and White Pine Mountains, while the Lincoln Highway provides a critical east-west corridor through the valley floor. The map documents an extensive network of water sources vital for ranching and travel, including specialized labels like Campbell No 1 Sheep Swan and Robbers Roost No 2 Spring. To the south, the historic mining legacy of the region is preserved at Hamilton (Historic Ruins), situated within the Humboldt National Forest. The presence of numerous named springs, such as Sammy Springs and Wild Horse Spring, illustrates the reliance on scattered water points across the vast Jake s Valley.
