1986 Map of Tolicha Peak

USGS Topo · Published 1986

About this map

Pahute Mesa and the surrounding high desert terrain define this mid-1980s survey of the northern Nellis Air Force Range (Restricted Area). The landscape is a mix of natural volcanic features and modern military infrastructure, with significant heights including Tolicha Peak and the dark slopes of Obsidian Butte. For those interested in the area's older history, evidence of mineral exploration remains in the numerous prospects, a mine shaft, and several adits clustered near Quartz Mountain. Water is notably scarce, marked only by the seasonal Tolicha Wash and the essential Monte Cristo Spring. The map documents a specialized landscape where natural volcanic landmarks like Fac Hill coexist with a network of aviation-related features, including a Radio Tower, a Blank Pad, and various numbered targets such as Sap 3 through Sap 9 scattered across the flats.
