1966 Map of Badger Mtn SE

USGS Topo · Published 1990

About this map

The Charles Sheldon Antelope Range dominates this high-desert landscape on the boundary of Washoe and Humboldt counties. This mid-1960s survey documents a rugged network of drainages and seasonal water sources essential for survival in the Great Basin. Deep canyons like Wall Canyon and Little Cottonwood Canyon carve through the volcanic terrain, leading toward the prominent mass of Badger Mountain. The presence of numerous watering points, such as Domingo Spring, Wheeler Spring, and Bateman Spring, suggests the area's importance for wildlife and range management. A lone Prospect located west of Cottonwood Canyon and south of Little Cottonwood Canyon points to the area's geological potential, while the dramatic Wildcat Gorge and the open Shoestring Valley define the local topography. The map illustrates a largely roadless territory, marked only by occasional jeep trails used for access through the high range.
