1979 Map of Carters Station

About this map

The East Fork Carson River carves a deep path through this high-desert landscape on the border of Nevada and California. The 1970s terrain is marked by tribal heritage and early cattle ranching history, centered on the Washoe Indian Res (Dresslerville Colony) and the Washoe Cem in the northwest. Local landmarks such as Carters Station and the River Ranch follow the valley floor, while the surrounding flats like Bodie Flat and Cedar Flat provide a glimpse into the open-range character of Douglas County before modern development intensified.
