About this map

Goshute Valley and Antelope Valley converge in this high-desert landscape of Elko County, Nevada, as it appeared in the early 1980s. The terrain is defined by its sparse water sources and utilitarian ranching or mining infrastructure. A single prospect sits near the base of the mountains in the southwest, suggesting mineral exploration in an area otherwise dominated by open range. Water management is the primary evidence of human activity, represented by scattered wells and a cluster of Water Tanks in the southern reaches. The drainage of North Creek provides a rare riparian corridor through the dry valley floor, while a network of Jeep Trails provides the only access across the vast basin. This map serves as a detailed record of the region's essential landmarks for land management and geological study before modern developments.
