1955 Map of Millett

USGS Topo · Published 1963

About this map

Reese River and the high basins of central Nevada define this mid-century landscape of ranching and mining. In the western reaches, the Yomba Indian Reservation sits within the Toiyabe National Forest, while the wide Big Smoky Valley is punctuated by unique geothermal features like Dianas Punch Bowl and Spruce Hot Springs. This era shows a network of remote family-run operations such as Burtens Ranch, McClusky Ranch, and Siri Ranch scattered across the Grass Valley and Kobeh Valley. Economic activity is anchored by the Mount Hope Mine and McCoy Mining Camp, with transport moving through the high-elevation Railroad Pass. From the Diamond Mountains in the east to the Humboldt Salt Marsh in the west, the map details a region where water sources and mountain passes dictated the survival of isolated settlements.
