About this map

Clover Valley dominates this 1980s landscape in Elko County, showing a vast transition between the valley floor and the surrounding high desert terrain. The map captures a moment in time when the basin was primarily defined by its natural drainage patterns and section lines rather than dense settlement. Human activity is concentrated at a specific Quarry site in the southwestern portion of the quadrangle, suggesting localized industrial or infrastructure use. Compiled from 1970s aerial photography and field-checked in the early 1980s, this provisional survey by the U.S. Geological Survey documents the sparse road network and terrain before modern developments. The lack of named settlements emphasizes the remote, utilitarian nature of the land during this era.
