1986 Map of Telephone Well

About this map

Sahwave Mountains and the Truckee Range converge in this high-desert landscape, where the arid terrain is defined by complex geological prospecting during the mid-1980s. The map captures a high concentration of mineral exploration, evidenced by numerous prospects, a quarry, and a Mine Dump concentrated along the western slopes of the mountains. Water access in this dry basin is limited to isolated points like Brady Springs Well and the seasonal drainage of Sage Hen Wash. The presence of a major Transmission Line and a Pipeline cutting across the North Valley and Copper Valley reflects the region's role as a transit corridor for utility infrastructure between the Trinity Range and Fireball Ridge.
