1986 Map of The Cove

USGS Topo · Published 1986

About this map

Humboldt National Forest dominates the western portion of this mid-1980s survey, where steep terrain transitions into the high desert basins along the state border. This landscape is defined by its drainage systems and mineral exploration, with Hampton Creek and Hendrys Creek cutting eastward toward the Nevada Utah line. Geologic interest is concentrated around The Cove, a prominent landform surrounded by numerous prospects and quarries, indicating the area's history of small-scale mining and resource extraction. The map identifies specific landmarks like the Natural Arch near Red Ledge Canyon, and water sources such as Caine Spring, which were vital for those traversing the remote boundary between White Pine and Millard counties. This provisional edition provides a rare look at the unpaved 4wd routes and industrial markers that define the remote borderland economy.
