1971 Map of Silver King Mtn SW

About this map

White River flows southward through this high-altitude basin on the edge of the Dry Lake Valley, defining the geographic character of a territory shared by Nye and Lincoln counties. The landscape is marked by the scarce water resources typical of the Great Basin, including the Rye Patch Reservoir and the White River Well. A network of an unnamed Jeep Trail provides the only documented passage through the varied topography, suggesting a region utilized primarily for ranching or remote transit rather than permanent settlement. The proximity of the county line highlights the administrative divisions in this sparsely populated interior, where the river's path is the most prominent feature among the surrounding elevations.
