About this map

The Reese River carves a central path through this Nevada landscape, separating the high elevations of the Fish Creek Mountains to the northwest from the Shoshone Range in the southeast. This 1990 provisional survey documents a transition between the broad, flat Valley of the Moon and the complex mountain terrain. Evidence of infrastructure is concentrated along the river valley, where a Landing Strip and multiple Gravel Pit operations are noted. Water management is a primary theme of the area, as seen in the seasonal drainage of Cain Creek and the numerous wells marked throughout the valley floor, reflecting the region's reliance on groundwater for ranching and local industry during the late 20th century.
