2014 Map of Mineral Hill NW

About this map

Pine Valley serves as the central geographic focus of this Eureka County landscape, where the high desert terrain is defined by a network of seasonal drainages and isolated springs. The small settlements of Blackburn and Mineral sit along the primary north-south corridor, linked by the route of State Highway 278. This 2014 survey documents the modern layout of these rural outposts and the surrounding ranching or mining lands before further development. The map detail highlights the importance of water sources in this arid environment, featuring named points like McCoy Spring and Willow Spring. Topographical features including Aiken Canyon and Town Canyon illustrate the complex drainage patterns feeding into Pine Cr, reflecting the long-standing geographic constraints on settlement and transit in the Nevada interior.
