1956 Map of Desert Creek Peak

USGS Topo · Published 1963

About this map

Desert Creek Peak dominates the center of this high-elevation terrain, marking a dramatic landscape where the Wellington Hills rise above the agricultural valley floor. The map records the complex water management systems essential to the region, including the Saroni Canal, Smith Valley Canal, and Eastside Canal, which divert the Walker River to sustain scattered outposts like the Rosaschi Ranch. Evidence of the area's mining history is scattered throughout the hills, from the Boulder Hill Mine in the north to the Rickey Mine further south.
