1980 Map of Peavine Ranch

About this map

Peavine Ranch and its adjacent Forest Service Station anchor this high-elevation landscape in the Toiyabe Range during the late 1970s. The terrain is defined by a series of deep drainages including Dry Canyon, Horse Canyon, and Peavine Canyon that descend toward the broad flats of the Big Smoky Valley. This survey captures the vital water infrastructure of the arid basin, noting numerous remote water sources such as Seyler Spring, Mustang Spring, and various unnamed Springs. The influence of federal land management is evident throughout the Toiyabe National Forest, with a designated Campground and multiple Corral sites indicating a mix of recreational use and ongoing livestock operations. Small-scale mineral exploration is marked by several Prospects and a singular Prospect located near the southern indefinite boundary.
