1971 Map of Eagle Pass

About this map

Toiyabe National Forest dominates this high-altitude landscape in central Nevada, where the slopes of the Monitor Range descend into the broad expanse of Stone Cabin Valley. The mapping reveals a terrain defined by its water sources, with numerous springs such as Knoll Spring and Burnt Cabin Spring providing critical points of reference in an otherwise arid environment. Evidence of human habitation and land use is centered around the Daugherty Ranch, located near the mouth of House Canyon. The network of travel through these mountains is preserved via several Jeep Trails and a Pack Trail that crosses through Eagle Pass, connecting the high ridges with the valley floor near Willow Creek. This 1970s survey captures the region's character as a managed wilderness area where cattle ranching and recreational access intersect along the forest boundaries.
