1958 Map of Huntsman Ranch

USGS Topo · Published 1960

About this map

Huntsman Ranch serves as the primary landmark in this arid portion of Elko County, situated near the seasonal drainage of Susie Creek. The landscape is defined by its water sources, which were critical for ranching and survival in the high desert of northern Nevada during the late 1950s. The map identifies several specialized hydrological features, including the Lower Dry Susie Spring and a geothermal area simply labeled Hot Springs near the southern edge. The presence of several Prospect sites throughout the hills indicates the persistent search for mineral wealth that characterized the region's economy alongside livestock raising. This survey, based on aerial photography from 1953 and 1956, documents the network of unimproved roads and gullies like Dry Gulch that connected isolated outposts to the larger Maggie Creek drainage system.
