1986 Map of Mc Kinney Tanks

USGS Topo · Published 1986

About this map

Ralston Valley spreads across the southwestern portion of this mid-1980s field study, meeting the rising elevation of the Monitor Range to the east. This transition from the valley floor to the high desert peaks is marked by a history of resource extraction, evidenced by scattered prospects, a quarry, and mine shafts tucked into the northern ridges. The mapping reflects the administrative footprint of the Toiyabe National Forest boundary as it cuts through the high ground. Central to the human footprint here is Mc Kinney Tanks, a focal point in an otherwise arid expanse of public land in Nye County. The landscape is primarily defined by its drainage patterns and natural tanks, which served as essential water sources in the high basin-and-range environment before modern infrastructure transformed the region.
