1980 Map of Sand Pass

USGS Topo · Published 1984

About this map

Bonham Ranch and the small settlement of Sand Pass occupy a stark transition zone between the Smoke Creek Desert and the high ridges of Mission Peak. This 1980 survey illustrates a landscape defined by its scarce water sources, where named features such as Rotten Egg Spring, Round Hole Spring, and Laird Spring provided essential lifeblood for early ranching and transit. The western edge of the Pyramid Lake Indian Reservation is clearly delineated, showing the intersection of tribal lands with the industrial path of the Western Pacific railroad.
