1968 Map of Rodeo Creek NE

USGS Topo · Published 1981

About this map

The Tuscarora Mountains dominate this 1968 landscape in northern Nevada, showcasing a region defined by industrial-scale mineral extraction. At the heart of the terrain lies the Carlin Mine, a site that would become synonymous with one of the most significant gold deposits in the world. The map meticulously records the heavy infrastructure required for these operations, including an extensive Aqueduct system, a Tailings Pond, and specialized sites like the Blue Star Mine and Big Six Mine. These features illustrate the transformation of the high desert as mining transformed the earth near Popovich Hill and Richmond Mountain. Away from the industrial hubs, the land is punctuated by isolated Corrals and numerous seasonal water sources such as Little Indian Creek and Cottonwood Creek, reflecting the traditional ranching heritage that exists alongside the massive open-pit mining operations in Boulder Basin.
