1985 Map of Stockton Well

USGS Topo · Published 1985

About this map

The Virginia Range dominates the northern half of this Nevada landscape, where the legacy of desert extraction is visible through the Tapaloosa (Mining District) and various mining operations like the Christianson Shaft and Dyke Adit. To the south, the terrain descends into Churchill Valley and the expansive Stockton Flat, areas defined by their intersection of pioneer history and mid-century residential planning. The historic Emigrant Trail traverses the valley floor, cutting through a grid of named streets such as California Ave and Dayton Ave that mark the growth of Silver Springs. This settlement, along with Stagecoach further west, reflects the transition from early mining and ranching outposts like Stockton Well and Rock Blind Spring to a more permanent rural community serviced by the Lahontan Airstrip and regional water infrastructure.
