1987 Map of Lida Wash NW

About this map

Clayton Valley dominates the eastern half of this 1980s-era landscape, where the flat basin floor gives way to an environment of industrial extraction. The western terrain is defined by numerous prospects, a Borrow Pit, and a localized Tailings Pond, indicating a focus on mineral exploration and resource management. Infrastructure in this arid region is sparse but specific, including a Pumping Station, a Tank, and Two Single Pole Trans Lines that cut across the valley floor. To the southeast, an area of Sand Dunes marks a transition in the valley's surface composition, while a network of 4wd tracks provides the primary means of navigating the desert floor and its surrounding slopes.
