About this map

Mining operations and irrigated agriculture define this 1957 landscape at the intersection of Douglas and Lyon counties. The Singatse Range is heavily marked by industrial activity, including the Ludwig (Site) and several adjacent excavations such as the Douglas Hill Mine and Casting Copper Mine. These sites are linked by an Old Railroad Grade that traces the base of the mountains, suggesting the era's reliance on rail transport for mineral extraction.
