1982 Map of Ragged Top Mtn SW

USGS Topo · Published 1982

About this map

Granite Springs Valley and Copper Valley define the arid landscape of this 1982 Nevada study, showing the high-desert terrain of Pershing County. The map documents sparse but vital human footprints in this desert environment, specifically the Blue Wing Cow Camp and the West Ragged Top Well located near the northern edge. These features, along with a solitary Borrow Pit, suggest the area's primary functions involved seasonal ranching and road maintenance. The natural drainage of Sage Hen Wash cuts through the valley floor, illustrating the basin-and-range topography where water is a rare and localized resource. This map is particularly useful for understanding the historical land use and water management of these remote Nevada valleys during the early 1980s.
