1985 Map of Mesquite Mountains

USGS Topo · Published 1985

About this map

Mesquite Mountains define the high ground of this high-desert quadrangle, where the steep topography of the range gives way to the broad basin of Shadow Valley in the south. The 1985 survey illustrates a landscape primarily shaped by resource extraction and transportation, marked by numerous Prospect sites and a Borrow Pit indicating early exploration or road maintenance activity. Kingston Road and Excelsior Mine Road provide the primary access through the desert floor, converging near the gap at Winters Pass. This provisional edition captures the corridor's infrastructure in the mid-1980s, documenting the precise placement of desert tracks and mining claims within the public land survey system.
