1967 Map of Ninemile Mtn NE

USGS Topo · Published 1971

About this map

Thousand Springs Creek winds through the northern landscape of this corner of Elko County, defining a drainage pattern in a high-desert environment where water sources are critical markers. The map, based on 1966 aerial photography and 1967 field checks, reveals a terrain shaped by dramatic elevation changes and seasonal watercourses. Large topographic features like Twentyone Mile Draw and Twelvemile Canyon indicate the natural paths through which snowmelt and occasional rains carve the landscape. For local historians or those studying land use, the presence of specific water points such as Spring and Well labels provides insight into the vital infrastructure needed for ranching or surveying in this part of northeastern Nevada. The division between T. 41 N. and T. 40 N. provides a clear reference for township boundaries in this remote section of the Great Basin.
