1968 Map of Knoll Mountain SE

About this map

Thousand Springs Valley defines the lower elevations of this high-desert landscape in northeastern Nevada, where drainage patterns from the surrounding uplands converge. The topographical detail reveals a complex network of ephemeral waterways, notably Burnt Creek and the deep incision of Corral Canyon. This 1968 field-checked environment is characterized by its vital water sources, including several identified Springs and an isolated Spring that would have been critical markers for ranching and movement through the basin. The presence of a Jeep Trail winding through the northern terrain indicates the remote accessibility of the region during the late 1960s. Benchmarks like BM 5343 and BM 5364 provide precise elevation data for the valley floor, documenting the geographic bones of this Elko County interior.
