2014 Map of Mineral Hill SW

About this map

Alpha and Shannon anchor this high-desert landscape in Eureka County, positioned along a transport corridor that defines the local geography. The area is characterized by a stark transition from the flat basins where Henderson Cr flows to the elevated terrain of Table Mtn and the narrow incision of Rocky Gulch. In the southeastern corner, Chimney Springs provides a critical water source in a region primarily defined by its drainage patterns and township divisions. The network of historical ranching and mining access routes, including Alpha-Tonkin Rd and JD Ranch Mineral Station Rd, illustrates the infrastructure required to navigate this portion of central Nevada. This 2014 survey documents the enduring physical landmarks and sparse settlement patterns that have persisted through decades of land use in the Mineral Hill region.
