1982 Map of Presnel Well

USGS Topo · Published 1982

About this map

Presnel Well serves as a lonely landmark in this high-desert basin of Humboldt County, surveyed just before the early 1980s. The landscape is defined by the stark presence of Alkali Flats and a shifting Sand Dune at the edge of the sheet, illustrating the arid conditions of northern Nevada. This mapping project, based on 1976 aerial photography, captures the section lines of Townships T 39 N and T 38 N in Range R 33 E, providing a clear record of the public land survey system in a region largely devoid of permanent human settlements or infrastructure.
