About this map

Golden (Ruins) and the Golden King Mine anchor the southern reaches of this Nye County landscape, where the high desert meets the Toiyabe National Forest. The map documents a rugged mining and ranching geography defined by steep drainage systems like Merritt Canyon and Indian Canyon, which flow westward from the high peak of Mount Ardivey. Evidence of earlier settlement is found in several locations marked simply as Ruins, particularly along Cottonwood Creek. The eastern edge of the quadrangle follows the course of Cloverdale Creek and provides access to Cripple Spring. This 1980 edition captures the area's resource-based history through scattered Prospects and remote Jeep Trails that traverse the Golden Wash.
