1982 Map of Ninemile Well NW

About this map

Butte Mountains form a central backbone across this 1982 provisional survey, separating the broad basins of Long Valley to the west and Butte Valley to the east. This high desert landscape in White Pine County is defined by its sparse water sources and topographic isolation, with named points such as Pony Springs and Willow Spring marking critical hydrology in an otherwise arid range. The terrain suggests a history of transient occupation and livestock grazing, further evidenced by a single Ruin and several unnamed trails or unimproved roads that navigate the complex contour of the mountains. The map preserves the exact locations of several benchmarks, including BM 1911.8, providing a precise record of the regional elevation and surveying network during the early 1980s. A quiet Seep on the western slopes further highlights the importance of localized water features for both early inhabitants and later ranching efforts in this part of Nevada.
