1968 Map of Independence Valley NW

USGS Topo · Published 1971

About this map

Warm Springs Ranch serves as a lone point of habitation in this high-desert basin of Elko County, mapped during the late 1960s. The landscape is defined by the Independence Valley (Depression), a vast sink where seasonal drainage from Independence Creek and scattered Springs terminates. This hydrological pattern suggests a specialized ranching economy dependent on these rare water sources in an otherwise arid environment.
