About this map

Gabbs Valley dominates this high-desert landscape in the late 1970s, bounded by the northern reaches of the Gabbs Valley Range. This arid expanse is defined by a series of intermittent drainage systems, including the prominent Gabbs Wash and Finger Rock Wash, which channel water toward the basin floor. Mining interests are evident in the northern Black Hills, where the Lithia Mine and Rita Mine were established near the county line. The presence of these operations, along with scattered features like the Borrow Pit, suggests a landscape focused on mineral extraction and infrastructure maintenance during this era.
