1971 Map of Barley Creek

USGS Topo · Published 1974

About this map

Monitor Valley provides a striking expanse of high-desert terrain on this 1971 survey of Nye County. The landscape is defined by the significant elevation changes between the valley floor and the heights of Table Mountain and the Monitor Range. Human activity is concentrated along the western edge of the mountains, most notably at the Barley Creek Ranch, which sits near the junction of several drainage systems. Within the Toiyabe National Forest, the map records a network of primitive transportation including a Pack Trail, Jeep Trail, and unnamed Trail segments. These routes navigate through steep features like Haystack Canyon and lead toward high-altitude grazing areas such as Big Meadow. Critical water sources, essential for ranching and survival in this arid environment, are meticulously noted, including South Fork Mosquito Creek and several isolated Spring and Springs locations.
