1973 Map of Leith

USGS Topo · Published 1982

About this map

Meadow Valley Wash carves a deep path through Lincoln County, serving as the primary corridor for the Union Pacific railroad line. This 1973 survey illustrates the sparse but critical water resources essential for habitation in the high desert, from the evocatively named Fountain of Youth Spring to Oil Spring and Mudhole Spring. The settlement at Leith sits along the rail line at the base of Cottonwood Wash, representing a remote outpost in a landscape defined by steep canyons and named grazing lands like the Horse Pasture.
