1958 Map of Ruth

USGS Topo · Published 1985

About this map

The massive industrial footprint of the Robinson mining district dominates this survey of the Egan Range. Centered around the town of Ruth, the landscape is defined by extensive earthworks including the Liberty Pit and Kimbley Pit, along with sprawling waste sites like the Keystone Dump and Puritan Dump. These operations are connected by the Nevada Northern railroad, which threads through the canyons to serve the high-output copper mines. Eastward, the terrain transitions toward Steptoe Valley, where the settlement of Lane City and the Central Ely Sch mark the fringes of Ely.
