1969 Map of Yankee Blade

About this map

Mining operations and historical claims define the landscape of Toiyabe National Forest during the late 1960s. The region is marked by an extensive network of subterranean development, including the North Silver King Mine and several prominent tunnels such as the True Blue Tunnel, Patriot Tunnels, and the Morris and Caple Tunnel. These features, concentrated around the settlement area of Yankee Blade and New York Canyon, reflect a legacy of hard-rock mineral exploration in the high desert.
