About this map

The E Fork Carson River carves a winding path through this corner of the Sierra Nevada, defining a landscape of high summits and sheltered flats. In the early 21st century, the small settlement of Loope serves as a central point along the river, near where Monitor Cr joins the main flow. The map reveals a history of land use and transit, from the timber and grazing lands at Haypress Flat and Forest City Flat to the industrial access provided by Leviathan Mine Rd.

High points like Mogul Peak, Colorado Hill, and Silver Hill overlook a network of canyons including Loope Canyon and Goskey Canyon. To the south, Heenan Lake sits as a significant water feature, while the Centerville Bridge provides a crossing point near Centerville Flat. This survey details the complex terrain where mountain peaks meet creek-fed basins, preserving the names of local landmarks like Sagehen Flat and Eagle Gulch.
