1971 Map of Pilot

USGS Topo · Published 1974

About this map

The Pilot Creek Valley landscape is dominated by the stark transition from the high Morris Basin down to the eastern Sand Dunes. This 1971 survey captures a corridor of essential infrastructure cutting through the Nevada desert, including the Western Pacific railroad and a long-spanning Aqueduct that parallels the modern transit lines. Historical depth is found along the Old Railroad Grade, tracing a previous era's path through the basin.
