1969 Map of Vigus Butte

USGS Topo · Published 1971

About this map

Jacobsville (Site) and Ledlie (Site) anchor this 1969 survey of the central Nevada desert, marking the footprints of former outposts in the high basin. The landscape is dominated by the massive Vigus Butte, surrounded by evidence of early industrial activity ranging from the Guenah Mine and Skookum Mine to various Gravel Pits. The Old Railroad Grade snakes through the valley parallel to the Reese River, illustrating the historical transportation network that once supported these remote mining and ranching operations.
