1956 Map of Mt. Grant

About this map

Mt Grant looms over the western shoreline of Walker Lake in this mid-century survey of the Wassuk Range. The landscape is defined by the sharp transition from the arid valleys of the East Walker River to the high alpine terrain of the Toiyabe National Forest. Human presence is sparse, concentrated at the Flying M Ranch and the East Walker School, suggesting a remote ranching and mining economy typical of this Nevada corridor.
