1984 Map of Keyhole Canyon

USGS Topo · Published 1984

About this map

Eldorado Mountains and the broad Eldorado Valley define this landscape in Southern Nevada during the early 1980s. The map highlights a significant cultural intersection at the Keyhole Canyon Archeological Site, situated where the rugged slopes meet the alluvial floor. This desert environment is marked by human utility and ancient presence, showing a long-established Pipeline and a Fence line cutting across the valley floor. Water, though scarce, is represented by the central Keyhole Canyon and the Desert Queen Well, which speak to the historic efforts to sustain life and livestock in this arid basin. Industrial activity is indicated by several Borrow Pits and a power transmission line, while the natural drainage of Sand Wash carves through the eastern terrain.
