1968 Map of The Wall SE

USGS Topo · Published 1972

About this map

Railroad Valley dominates the topography of this Nye County landscape, where the wide desert floor is marked by essential water sources and signs of mid-century exploration. Mapped in 1968 in cooperation with the Atomic Energy Commission, the sheet highlights scattered water points like Abel Spring and Feroy Well, which served as critical landmarks in an otherwise arid expanse. In the southern portion of the quadrangle, the presence of Drill Holes and a Well near the boundary of R. 54 E. and R. 55 E. reflects the period's geological and energy-related survey activities. The map provides a precise record of the desert's drainage patterns and elevations, documenting the specific locations of isolated infrastructure within the Great Basin's expansive basin-and-range terrain.
