About this map

Thirtymile Ranch serves as the central focal point in this high-desert basin of eastern Nevada, situated between the prominence of Sugarloaf and the expansive Butte Valley. The map reveals a landscape defined by its vital water sources, including Gracian Well, Silver Tank, and Summit Spring, which were essential for ranching operations in this arid environment. Topographical features like Red Pepper Butte and the rugged cuts of Burnt Canyon and Long Valley Canyon illustrate the isolation and environmental challenges of the region. The network of washes, such as White Sage Wash and Thirtymile Wash, along with the curiously named Robbers Roost, suggests a history of transient movement through the Mountains. This 1982 provisional edition captures the footprint of rural life in Butte and Butte Valley before modern changes altered these traditional land uses.
