1952 Map of Stinking Spring

USGS Topo · Published 1952

About this map

The Kawich Range dominates the eastern landscape of this Nevada survey, a region defined in the early 1950s by its intersection of traditional ranching and modern military operations. The vast Las Vegas Bombing and Gunnery Range occupies the southern half of the sheet, marked by a network of specialized infrastructure including a Landing Field, various Target markers, a Bunker, and an Observation Tower. This military presence contrasts with the older character of the land found at Longstreets Ranch and the Golden Arrow Mining Area to the north. Water sources like Stinking Spring, Silverbow Springs, and Breen Creek provide the essential geographic anchors for both the historic mining activity and the ranching homesteads that survived in this arid high-desert environment along the Mt Diablo Base Line.
