About this map

High-altitude peaks meet the arid expanse of Baking Powder Flat in this 1948 field survey, illustrating the complex landscape of eastern Nevada. The rugged geography of the Nevada National Forest is defined by monumental summits like Wheeler Pk and Mt Washington, where numerous mining operations such as The Chief Mine and the Tungsten Queen Mine underscore the region's mid-century extraction economy.
