1971 Map of Poker Brown

USGS Topo · Published 1974

About this map

Majuba Mountains dominate this high-desert landscape in Pershing County, Nevada, where early 1970s surveying documented a region shaped by both geologic forces and mining efforts. To the north, Majuba Placers mark a site of historical mineral interest, while scattered prospects along the southern edge near the Trinity Range suggest a legacy of individual exploration. Water, always a critical resource in this arid environment, is pinpointed at Cavanaugh Spring and the Dry Well, which sit alongside drainage systems like Cavanaugh Wash and Poker Brown Wash. The map also traces a network of remote Jeep Trails that provided the only access to the landmark known simply as Poker Brown, located at the intersection of these ancient washes and dry uplands.
