1971 Map of Silver King Well

USGS Topo · Published 1990

About this map

The Egan Range and Schell Creek Range dominate this interior Nevada landscape, framing the high desert basin of Cave Valley. In the early 1970s, water sources remained the primary focal points for activity in this arid corridor, evidenced by a network of isolated outposts such as Lewis Well, Griswold Well, and the centrally located Silver King Well. The terrain is characterized by steep canyons and seasonal hydrology, with labels like Wolf Hole Spring (Dry) and Trough Canyon indicating the precarious nature of water in the valley.
