1990 Map of Pogues Station

USGS Topo · Published 1990

About this map

Pogues Station serves as the focal point of this arid basin and range landscape on the boundary between White Pine and Nye counties. This 1990 provisional survey documents a high-desert environment where water sources like Soda Spring, Nevada Governors Spring, and a localized Spring were critical for survival and transit. The presence of numerous prospects and a Gravel Pit indicate a landscape defined by small-scale mineral exploration and resource extraction, common across this section of Nevada. The terrain is marked by significant elevation changes, most notably at Red Rock Summit, which overlooks the winding network of unimproved roads and 4WD tracks that connected these remote outposts. This map captures the persistent character of the Great Basin, where isolated landmarks and reliable water remained the primary features of the human footprint long after the initial mining booms.
