1991 Map of Hinkey Summit

About this map

Santa Rosa Range high country defines this 1991 provisional survey of north-central Nevada. The landscape is characterized by its high-altitude water systems and early-stage mineral exploration, marked by numerous labels for Prospect and Prospects scattered across the northern slopes. The map details the central drainage of the Humboldt National Forest, where the North Fork, Middle Fork, and South Fork converge. Infrastructure is sparse, concentrated at the Martin Creek Guard Sta and the Radio Facility near Hinkey Summit. Local activity centers on seasonal use and resource management, evidenced by the Campground near Lye Creek and the presence of the Gravel Pit in the eastern flats. Named landmarks like Chocolate Mtn and Granite Peak serve as primary navigational anchors for this remote mountainous terrain.
