1958 Map of Stewart Valley

USGS Topo · Published 1964

About this map

Stewart Valley and Chicago Valley dominate this mid-century desert survey, revealing a landscape defined by historic transport routes and mining operations. The map traces the path of the Old Trail alongside the Traction Road and its predecessor, the Old Traction Road, marking the evolution of transit across the California-Nevada border. Mining activity is concentrated in the southern reaches, with the Baster Mine, Red Wing Mine, and Gerstley Mine situated near the Resting Springs Range. Water sources, critical for survival in this arid environment, are specifically identified at Sixmile Spr, Twelvemile Spring, and several Artesian Wells. The intersection of the Nye Co Inyo Co line with the state border provides a precise reference for those researching regional administrative boundaries and historical land use during this era of post-war exploration.
