About this map

The Danville (historical) site and George Camp anchor this study of the eastern Monitor Range in Nye County. This high-altitude landscape is defined by the steep drainages of Danville Canyon and the prominent elevations of Table Mountain and Tulle Mountain. The map details the complex drainage systems that feed into the basin, including Wadsworth Creek, Tulle Creek, and Sawmill Creek, alongside smaller features like Clear Lake and Morgan Spring.

Remote trail access points such as the Clear Creek Trailhead and Danville Canyon Trailhead suggest a region primarily used for wilderness transit and seasonal camp activity. The presence of the historical settlement of Danville near Danville Creek provides a focal point for those researching the early territorial activity and ranching or mining outposts that once dotted these canyons before they were primarily managed as forest and wilderness lands.
