1990 Map of Howard Hot Spring

USGS Topo · Published 1990

About this map

The Pine Forest Range dominates the western landscape of this 1990 survey, where steep terrain gives way to the high desert flats of Humboldt County. At the mountain front, Big Creek Ranch marks a point of human settlement where Big Creek emerges from the heights. The area is defined by its water sources, from the geothermal Howard Hot Spring in the northeast to scattered points like Willow Spring and the Four Springs group. Evidence of mineral exploration is visible along the southern slopes, with multiple noted Prospects and a Mine located near the headwaters of Granite Creek. The map documents a landscape of remote ranching and resource extraction, connected by a network of drainage systems including Rattlesnake Cr and Boyd Creek, illustrating the vital relationship between the rugged peaks and the arid basins below.
