2011 Map of Ione

About this map

Ione and Berlin anchor this high-desert landscape in the Shoshone Mountains, where early settlement patterns are clearly marked by civil infrastructure. Genealogy researchers will find both the Ione Cemetery and Berlin Cemetery noted, alongside the Glen Hamilton Post Office at the edge of Ione Canyon. The terrain is defined by dramatic elevation changes, with routes winding through Union Pass and over Ione Summit. Water sources are critical points on this map, ranging from Bradley Spring to Knickerbocker Spring, which feed seasonal drainages like Sand Wash and Knickerbocker Wash. The proximity of Buffalo Mountain to Buffalo Canyon suggests a landscape where geographic names were influenced by both local wildlife and the mining-era pioneers who once inhabited these canyons.
