1989 Map of Ninemile Peak

About this map

The East Walker River flows through the northwestern corner of this high-desert landscape, defining a narrow corridor of activity in a region shaped by ranching and mineral exploration. In the late 20th century, the Ninemile Ranch stands as the primary namesake settlement near the southern boundary, where Bodie Creek and Rough Creek converge. The terrain is marked by various extractive efforts, from the Gravel Pit operations near the county line to scattered prospects and specialized open pit mines. Spanning the border of Lyon and Mineral Counties, the map illustrates a sparsely populated territory where water sources and geologic potential dictate the placement of human improvements in an otherwise arid expanse.
