1987 Map of Oreana NW

USGS Topo · Published 1988

About this map

The Trinity Range dominates this Pershing County landscape as it was documented in the mid-1980s. This high-altitude desert terrain is defined by a sparse but telling human imprint, primarily centered on mineral exploration and limited travel routes. Numerous Prospects are scattered across the slopes, indicating a history of small-scale mining activity and prospecting that characterizes this portion of the Great Basin. Access across the arid basins and steep ridges is maintained by Poker Brown Road and several 4wd tracks, which navigate between vital water sources like the isolated Spring and Well locations. These features illustrate the precarious nature of navigation and industry in a region where water and mineral potential dictate the placement of every trail and outpost.
