1968 Map of Reveille SE

About this map

The Reveille Range dominates the western half of this 1968 survey, its steep contours giving way to the broad flats of Railroad Valley to the east. This specific study was conducted by the Geological Survey in cooperation with the Atomic Energy Commission, reflecting the strategic and scientific importance of this high-desert region during the late 1960s. The landscape is marked by minimal human infrastructure, characterized primarily by an unimproved Jeep Trail and a single Gravel Pit. Notable geographic markers include the summit labeled Hungry, which provides a distinct vertical reference point overlooking the valley floor. The map precisely delineates township and range boundaries, including the intersection of T. 3 N. T. 2 1/2 N. and R. 52 E. R. 53 E., capturing the stark, undeveloped character of the Nye County interior.
