1967 Map of Ninemile Mtn NE

About this map

Thousand Springs Creek flows through the northern reaches of this Elko County landscape, a region defined by its high-desert drainage patterns and dramatic topographic relief. The terrain is deeply incised by natural corridors such as Twentymone Draw and the steep-walled Twelvemile Canyon, which underscore the isolation and hydraulic character of the Nevada interior. This 1967 survey, updated with 1980 aerial photogrammetry, reveals a land almost entirely devoid of permanent settlement, with human presence marked only by a few Wells, a scattered Spring, and high-clearance 4wd tracks. The placement of these water sources was critical for the ranching and resource extraction activities that have historically shaped this part of the Great Basin.
