1956 Map of Ackerman Canyon

USGS Topo · Published 1957

About this map

Park Range peaks and high-desert basins define this central Nevada landscape during the mid-1950s, a period when isolated ranching outposts and mineral exploration remained the primary human footprint. The map documents a rugged interior geography where survival depended on localized water sources such as Potato Canyon Spring, Cottonwood Spring, and Fagin Mtn Springs. Settlement patterns are sparse, represented by family-named operations including Santa Fe Ranch, Ferguson Ranch, and Dry Creek Ranch.
