1964 Map of Tohakum Peak SE

USGS Topo · Published 1983

About this map

Winnemucca Lake dominates the western half of this Nevada landscape, its expansive bed defined by an Indefinite Boundary that separates Washoe and Pershing Counties. The eastern terrain rises sharply into the Nightingale Mountains, where high-altitude mining activity is centered at the MGL Mines. This 1960s survey records a sparse desert environment where survival depends on reliable water sources like the Alkaline Spring, several isolated Wells, and a Water Tank positioned near the rugged mountain slopes. The western shore falls within the Pyramid Lake Indian Reservation, reflecting the historical land divisions of the Great Basin. Access across the arid flats and steep ridges is limited to a primitive network of a Jeep Trail and a Pack Trail, illustrating the remote nature of this mineral-rich region.
