1983 Map of Nipton

USGS Topo · Published 1983

About this map

Nipton serves as a lonely outpost along the Union Pacific rail line in the high desert of the Ivanpah Valley. This 1983 provisional survey documents a landscape defined by its transit history and arid geography, sitting precisely at the border between Nevada and San Bernardino Co, California. The map clearly delineates the Von Schmidt Line (1873), an important historical surveying boundary that has long influenced land claims in the Mojave region.
