1966 Map of Little Coleman Canyon

About this map

Coleman Valley defines this high-desert landscape along the border of Nevada and Oregon during the mid-1960s. The area is characterized by the convergence of steep drainage systems, most notably Little Coleman Canyon and Coleman Canyon, which feed into the main valley floor. Human activity is centered at the Coleman Ranch, a lone outpost connected to the surrounding wilderness by a network of unimproved routes labeled as Jeep Trail and simple pack trails. These paths navigate a terrain where water is the primary point of interest for survival and ranching, marked by numerous small features like Glenco Spring and various seeps. The map captures a moment when this remote corner of Washoe County remained largely undeveloped, save for the cattle operations and a small Gravel Pit near the creek.
