1978 Map of Lake Valley Summit

USGS Topo · Published 1978

About this map

Lake Valley Summit serves as the topographic divide between the Great Basin's Lake Valley and Spring Valley in White Pine County. This 1970s landscape is defined by the vital presence of water in an arid environment, notably the North Fox Well and South Fox Well, which are identified as flowing artesian sources. The arid flats and slopes of the Fortification Range are crossed by a network of utilitarian transit routes, including the South Highline Road and numerous stretches of Jeep Trail. Local landmarks like Kirkeby Knoll provide reference points for travelers navigating the pass, where a designated Rest Area and various resource extraction sites such as a Gravel Pit and Borrow Pit mark the limited human footprint on this high-desert corridor.
