1971 Map of West Morris Basin

USGS Topo · Published 1974

About this map

The Toano Range dominates this portion of Elko County, serving as a high-altitude divider between the Goshute Valley to the west and the expansive basin lands to the east. This 1971 survey records a landscape shaped by both geological forces and human transit, characterized by natural features like the Natural Arch and several Caves tucked into the mountain slopes. On the eastern edge, the Western Pacific railroad skirts the foothills, a vital transport artery in this high desert environment.
