1960 Map of Hickison Summit

USGS Topo · Published 1983

About this map

Monitor Valley is centered in this 1960 survey, flanked by the Simpson Park Mountains to the west and the heights of the Toiyabe National Forest to the east. This central Nevada landscape is defined by its wide basins and high summits, notably Hickison Summit and Bottle Summit. Ranching life is documented through established homesteads like Grimes Ranch, Vias Ranch, and Hodges Ranch, while Potts Well highlights the vital role of water management in this arid grazing country. The map tracks the passage of Stoneberger Creek and Dry Creek as they cut through the valley floor. Geological interest is noted with Charnac Basin and several high peaks, including VABM Camel 7533, providing a clear look at the region's topography before more modern development reached these remote rangelands.
