1966 Map of Massacre Creek

USGS Topo · Published 1983

About this map

Massacre Ranch sits as a lonely outpost within the high desert landscape of northwestern Nevada, centered on the drainage of Massacre Creek. The importance of water in this arid terrain is evidenced by the density of named water sources, ranging from the seasonally variable Middle Lake to a network of isolated springs including Emigrant Spring, Willow Spring, and Coyote Spring. These features suggest the historic movement of people and livestock through the region long before modern infrastructure reached this corner of Washoe County.
