About this map

Mining and high-desert hydrology define the landscape of the Singatse Range and Buckskin Range in the 1980s. The region is marked by significant historical extraction sites, notably the Minnesota Mine and the Guild Placer Mines, while the Martha Washington Shaft lies near the southern reach of the survey. The movement of water in this arid environment is tracked through isolated infrastructure like Sario Well, Churchill Well, and Fulstone No 3 Spring. Transportation across the difficult terrain is dictated by natural gaps including Gallagher Pass and Mason Pass, which provide passage between the mountain ridges and the eastern Mason Valley. The map also captures the zigzagging political boundary where Lyon County and Douglas County meet, showing how the remote topography of Lincoln Flat and Churchill Canyon influenced regional division.
