1981 Map of Eddies Garden

About this map

The Buffalo Hills dominate this high-desert landscape in northwestern Nevada, defined by a complex network of intermittent water sources and high-altitude rangeland features. Early ranching and grazing infrastructure is evident through named locations such as Stone Corral and Norton Place, alongside established seasonal camps like Pauls Camp. The hydrography is centered on the drainage systems of the North Fork Buffalo Creek and Middle Fork Buffalo Creek, which are fed by numerous named seeps including Wildcat Spring and Wrangler Springs. This 1981 record captures the layout of the high meadows before modern landscape changes, showing the placement of the Stockade and the southern Buffalo Meadows, areas historically significant for livestock management in the Great Basin.
