About this map

Pyramid Lake and its surrounding desert basins dominate this topographic survey, revealing the complex water and transport systems of western Nevada. The Truckee River carves a vital path through the mountains, serving as the corridor for the Southern Pacific railroad and major highways that link Reno and Sparks to the eastern desert flats. This era shows significant suburban development in Sun Valley and Lemmon Valley, contrasted against the vast lands of the Pyramid Lake Indian Reservation and the industrial activity at sites like the Celatom Mine.
