1948 Map of Ione

USGS Topo · Published 1966

About this map

Ione and Grantsville anchor the high desert landscape of the Toiyabe Range in this mid-century survey of Nye County. The area’s mining heritage is evident through numerous operations along the mountain slopes, including the Nevada Cinnabar Mine, Knickerbecker, and the Kohinoor Mine (Inactive) near Ellsworth Canyon. The map reveals a specialized high-altitude economy where remote settlements were tethered to water sources like Ione Spring and Indian Garden Spr and connected by long-distance tracks to Gabbs and Tonopah.
