1967 Map of Hot Springs Creek

About this map

Mala Vista Ranch anchors the northeastern portion of this High Desert landscape, where the geography is defined by a complex network of seasonal drainages and thermal activity. The eponymous Hot Springs Creek flows through the southern half of the quadrangle, eventually meeting the Marys River in the southeast corner. This confluence is monitored by a Gaging Sta, indicating the importance of water management in this arid cattle-ranching region. Evidence of mid-century infrastructure is visible near the ranch, including a designated Landing Area and a Water Tank, likely serving both aerial and terrestrial transit across the high plateaus. A rugged Jeep Trail provides the primary passage through the central hills, connecting various unnamed Springs and Spring points that sustain local livestock. In the north, Hanks Creek cuts through the high elevation, marking a terrain where natural water sources dictate the placement of human activity.
