1962 Map of Kittridge Springs

About this map

The Adobe Range dominates this corner of Elko County, defining a landscape shaped by high peaks and seasonal water sources in the early 1960s. The terrain is punctuated by significant elevations like Sherman Peak and the dual summits of East Twin, while a network of drainages including Sixteenmile Creek and Eightmile Creek carve through the high country. Human presence is sparse but concentrated around essential resources, notably at the Kittridge Ranch and the namesake Kittridge Springs. This period of land use is marked by a mix of traditional ranching and modern infrastructure, evidenced by a Radio Facility situated south of the main springs. A solitary Jeep Trail traverses the central ridges, illustrating the limited accessibility of this interior basin region before more extensive road networks were developed. For researchers, the map provides a clear record of established spring locations like Cherry Spring and Eightmile Spring that were vital to regional livestock operations.
