1980 Map of Coyote Mtn.

About this map

Coyote Mountain dominates this portion of the Calico Mountains, where the landscape is marked by the high-desert drainages of Young Canyon and Charlie Young Canyon. The presence of the Charlie Young Goat Corral (Site) and Coon Corrals suggests a history of livestock grazing in these basins, while the Black Ridge Cabin within the Humboldt National Forest points toward early seasonal habitation. Water is the primary driver of life here, documented by numerous named sources like Willow Spring, Frog Spring, and the Guard Corral Reservoir. To the east, the Humboldt River flows through Coyote Flat, providing a contrast to the higher elevations of Zymns Butte and Wildcat Hill. The network of Jeep Trails and a prominent Pipeline indicate the modern infrastructure laid over this traditional rangeland.
