1971 Map of McCann Canyon

About this map

Longstreet Ranch and the nearby Longstreet Mine sit at the base of the Monitor Range, illustrating the historical intersection of high-desert ranching and mineral exploration in the Toiyabe National Forest. The landscape is defined by the sharp transition from the steep, spring-fed drainages of the mountains to the expansive flats of Stone Cabin Valley. Water sources such as Bernice Spring and Little Cottonwood Spring provided essential hubs for activity in an otherwise arid environment. Evidence of earlier habitation and transit is preserved at McCann Station (Site) within McCann Canyon. The map reveals a network of primitive routes, including several unnamed trails and a Jeep Trail, that connect these isolated sites across rugged terrain marked by features like Pinon Peak and the timbered slopes of Brush Bunch.
