1968 Map of Pequop Summit SW

USGS Topo · Published 1971

About this map

Independence Valley (Depression) dominates this high-desert landscape in Elko County, captured shortly after the completion of the interstate through this corridor. The map shows the transition of western travel, with a network of Jeep Trails and unnamed primitive roads contrasting with the modern Independence Interchange. Hydrology in this arid basin is marked by ephemeral features such as Independence Creek and Squaw Creek, along with several subsurface water attempts including the Independence Well (Dry) and several other locations simply marked as Dry Well. Resource extraction is evident through scattered Gravel Pits and a Drill Hole, reflecting the region's industrial utility. The eastern edge of the quadrangle rises toward the Pequop Mountains, incised by drainage paths like Maverick Canyon.
