About this map

The Southern Pacific railroad cuts a diagonal line across this arid high-desert landscape in Lincoln County, anchoring the region's transport network during the early 1980s. The topography is defined by the broad Ancho Valley and its many tributary drainages, including Ancho Gulch and Largo Canyon. Water management is the primary sign of human activity here, with a dense network of catchment features such as Killgore Tank, Storey Tank, and Railroad Tank supporting livestock or steam-era rail infrastructure. Local landmarks like Red Hill and Big Pine Canyon provide navigational points in a terrain marked by scattered windmills and wells. The presence of the Roadside Park along the highway and various Gravel Pit sites suggests a landscape utilized for both regional transit and local material extraction.
