1968 Map of Pequop Summit SW

About this map

Independence Valley dominates this high desert landscape in Elko County, showing a sparse infrastructure of ranching and transit during the late 1960s. The topographic detail focuses on the arid drainage patterns of Independence Creek and Squaw Creek as they descend from the higher elevations of Maverick Canyon. Evidence of human activity is limited to a network of Jeep Trails and essential water infrastructure such as Independence Well and several other labeled Dry Wells, reflecting the challenges of this environment. The arrival of modern transportation is centered on the Independence Interchange, while industrial utility is noted through scattered Gravel Pits and a solitary Drill Hole. This survey provides a clear view of the open range before extensive later development, preserved as it was field checked in 1968.
