1985 Map of Belmont Creek

About this map

Huntington Valley serves as the central corridor for this mid-1980s landscape, where established family holdings like Twin Creek Ranch and Sadler Ranch mark the western flats. The terrain rises sharply to the east into the Ruby Mountains and the Humboldt National Forest, a transition defined by a complex network of seasonal drainages and springs. The map reveals a reliance on isolated water sources for ranching and survival, with named points such as Hellman Spring, White Pine Well, and School Creek Spring scattered throughout the foothills. To the south, the Elko and White Pine county line crosses the mountain slopes, while evidence of localized excavation appears at several Gravel Pits near Belmont Creek. This survey captures the remote character of northeastern Nevada, where geography is dictated by the availability of water and the high-elevation forest boundary.
