1971 Map of Atchison Creek

USGS Topo · Published 1974

About this map

The Indian Peak Range dominates the eastern landscape of this 1971 survey, casting its shadows over the expansive Hamlin Valley to the west. This high-desert terrain is defined by a seasonal water network, where drainage from Atchison Creek and Willow Creek feeds into the broad Hamlin Valley Wash. Settlement is sparse in this portion of the Great Basin, centered primarily at the O'Grain Ranch, which is served by a nearby Landing Strip. The presence of several Prospects and the Usmm 264 mineral monument suggests a history of resource exploration along the mountain flanks. A network of primitive ways, including a Jeep Trail, provides the primary access between remote watering points like Salt Cabin Spring and the boundary line separating Beaver and Iron counties.
