1984 Map of Nopah Peak

USGS Topo · Published 1984

About this map

Nopah Range anchors this 1984 survey, rising between the Chicago Valley to the west and the expansive Pahrump Valley to the east. The terrain is marked by the high point at Nopah Peak, while the lowlands are defined by the ephemeral basin of Dry Lake. One of the most significant historical markers shown is the Von Schmidt Line (1873), an early surveying attempt to define the border between Nevada and California. This map illustrates the intersection of Inyo County, California, and Nye County, Nevada, showing a landscape where modern boundaries meet 19th-century geodetic history. The network of 4wd tracks provides the only access through this arid environment, highlighting the isolation of the region during the mid-1980s.
