1951 Map of Soda Lake

USGS Topo · Published 1960

About this map

The Hot Springs Mountains dominate the northern landscape of this Churchill County survey, giving way to the expansive Alkali Flat and a network of volcanic craters and ephemeral lake beds. This mid-century view captures a transition from ancient travel routes to modern rail infrastructure. The Old California Trail is traced across the desert floor, intersecting with the Southern Pacific railroad line which facilitated transit through sidings like Upsal Siding and Falais Siding.
