1961 Map of Goose Creek

About this map

The Old Emigrant Trail cuts a historic path across this high-desert landscape where the borders of Nevada, Idaho, and Utah meet. Surveyed in the early 1960s, the terrain is defined by the drainage of Goose Creek and its many tributaries, including East Fork and West Fork. The map documents a sparse ranching economy through isolated outposts like Rancho Grande, Trout Creek Ranch, and Judd Ranch. These settlements are connected by a network of trails and unimproved roads that navigate significant geographical obstacles such as Wagon Box Pass and Deans Pass. To the north, the Sawtooth National Forest boundary marks a transition in land use, while prominent landmarks like Sugar Loaf Peak and Judd Mtn provide essential orientation for travelers in this remote tri-state corner.
