About this map

Shafter Well and Shafter Well No 2 stand as remote points of human presence in this arid region of Elko County during the early 1970s. The landscape is defined by the high ridges of the Toana Range and the Goshute Mountains, where the scarcity of water is evidenced by the prominence of named water sources like Rock Spring. This survey, based on 1970 aerial photography, captures a moment before modern infrastructure altered these high-desert drainage patterns, preserving the locations of essential ranching or surveying landmarks in a territory where such features were the primary indicators of human activity.
