1967 Map of Metropolis

USGS Topo · Published 1972

About this map

Metropolis stands as a testament to early 20th-century agricultural ambition in Elko County, appearing here as both a focal settlement and a designated Metropolis (Site) by 1967. The landscape reflects a transition from a planned farming community to a more dispersed ranching character, evidenced by the presence of Knudson Ranch and the Metropolis Cem. This geography is defined by the drainage of Bishop Creek as it moves toward the Humboldt River and the broad expanses of Bishop Flats.
