1971 Map of Timber Mtn Pass NW

USGS Topo · Published 1973

About this map

White River Valley and the northern reaches of Coal Valley dominate this 1971 landscape, showing the arid expanse of eastern Nevada as it was documented by the Geological Survey. The terrain is defined by the ephemeral course of the White River, which winds through the valley floor near Murphy Meadows, a notable wet patch in an otherwise dry basin. While the map is largely devoid of settlements, a solitary Well located in the eastern portion of the sheet highlights the critical importance of water access for ranching and surveying in this remote section of Nye County. The high-relief contours surrounding the valley floors illustrate the stark transition between the flat alluvium and the uplifted ranges that hem in these vast interior basins.
