1979 Map of Dogskin Mtn

About this map

Winnemucca Ranch serves as a lone human outpost in this high-desert landscape, situated where the Winnemucca Valley meets the slopes of Dogskin Mountain. The topography is defined by complex drainage networks, with the North Fork and South Fork of Dry Valley Creek carving through the arid terrain. This 1970s survey captures a wilderness interface where small-scale mining activity is evident through various prospects scattered near the Fort Sage Mountains. Water remains the most critical resource for the region's ranching and transit, marked by a high density of named water sources such as Lower Wildcat Spring, Upper Wildcat Spring, and Miller Spring. The map also traces the California-Nevada border as it intersects the Dry Valley, providing a detailed look at the interstate boundary before it climbs toward Petersen Mountain.
