1969 Map of Pahranagat Wash

About this map

The Coyote Spring Valley floor and the rising slopes of the Delamar Mountains dominate this 1969 topographic study. This arid Nevada landscape is characterized by the ephemeral drainage of the Pahranagat Wash and Kane Springs Wash, which define the local topography. A significant portion of the western territory is protected as part of the Desert National Wildlife Range, reflecting mid-century conservation efforts in Lincoln County. A concrete point of interest for local historians is the Old State Boundary Historical Marker located along the arterial route of 93, providing a physical connection to the state's geopolitical evolution. The map also identifies several geodetic points such as Hwy Mon 10, which served as critical survey benchmarks during the field checking process of the late 1960s.
