About this map

The Reese River valley defines this high-desert landscape in central Nevada, where the watercourse snakes between the steep slopes of the Toiyabe National Forest and the Yomba Indian Reservation. This 1980s provisional survey shows the traditional ranching and indigenous lands that characterize the region. Notable landmarks include the O'Toole Ranch situated near the river, and several deep drainage features like Barrett Canyon and Riley Canyon that feed the valley floor from the western mountains. The map captures the remote character of the area, punctuated only by a few unimproved roads and small creeks such as Marysville Creek. The presence of Becker Canyon and Waterfall Can indicates the complex topography of the Shoshone Mountains' eastern flank, providing a detailed record of the terrain as it appeared in the late twentieth century.
