1977 Map of Oregon Canyon

About this map

Castle Ridge dominates this northern Nevada landscape, where the high desert terrain is carved by the South Fork Little Humboldt River and its numerous tributaries. In the late 1970s, the area's mining legacy remained visible in the southeastern corner, where several workings such as the Elko Prince Mine and Miners Gold Mine are situated along Midas Creek. The presence of the Little Jewel Mine and Blue Bell Mine nearby suggests a once-active district concentrated in this rugged canyon section.
