1990 Map of Shoshone Meadows NE

USGS Topo · Published 1990

About this map

The Augusta Mountains dominate this high-desert landscape along the border of Churchill and Lander counties. This 1990 provisional survey records a territory defined by its scarce water resources and high-elevation relief, where isolated features such as Cain Spring and Hole in the Wall Well No 2 provide critical landmarks in an otherwise desolate terrain. The map's data, based on aerial photography from 1964 and revised in 1987, highlights the persistence of traditional land use patterns in the Great Basin. Small, scattered water sources like Well No 2 and various Springs are the primary named points of interest, suggesting a region centered on livestock grazing or transit through the desert ranges rather than permanent settlement.
