1967 Map of Rattlesnake Flat

USGS Topo · Published 1970

About this map

Garfield Hills and the Excelsior Mountains frame this high-desert corridor in Mineral County, Nevada. The landscape is defined by the broad transition from the alluvial expanse of Rattlesnake Flat to the rising slopes of Excelsior Mountain. This 1967 survey captures a remote region where water sources like Rattlesnake Well and Summit Spring dictate the sparse human footprint. Movement across this terrain is limited to a network of Jeep Trails and a Pack Trail that cuts through the southern reaches within the Toiyabe National Forest. The map provides an exacting look at the topographic contours of the Great Basin, illustrating the intersection of the Garfield and Excelsior ranges before modern development altered these traditional transit routes.
