1961 Map of Kyle Hot Springs

USGS Topo · Published 1963

About this map

Kyle Hot Springs sits at the western base of the East Range in this early 1960s survey of Pershing County. The landscape is defined by the sharp transition from the level expanse of Buena Vista Valley and the Alkali Flat to the high, broken terrain of Granite Mountain and Granite Peak. A network of jeep trails and historic routes like the Zimmershed Trail and the road to Klondike connect the valley floor to high-altitude mining and ranching interests. Resource extraction is evident at the Star Point Mine and along the mineral-rich Cinnabar Ridge. The availability of water is meticulously recorded via numerous named sources such as Sheppard Well, Sulphur Spring, and Bartomes Spr, highlighting the critical importance of reliable springs in the Great Basin high desert.
