1968 Map of Fish Springs NE

About this map

Little Fish Lake Valley dominates this 1968 landscape, serving as a high-altitude drainage basin between the towering Hot Creek Range to the east and the eastern edge of the Toiyabe National Forest to the west. This mapping effort, conducted in cooperation with the Atomic Energy Commission, captures a region defined by seasonal water flow and high-desert basins. The geography is marked by the convergence of Sevenmile Wash and Savory Creek, which flow toward the central valley floor. Settlement is sparse, represented only by isolated infrastructure such as a Well and a Spring located near the mouth of Long Canyon. The map provides a detailed record of the drainage patterns from the Antelope Range, including Moonshine Creek, before these ephemeral waters reach the sinks of Dry Valley.
