1986 Map of Roberts Creek Mtn.

About this map

The Roberts Mountains dominate this 1980s landscape, where high-altitude springs feed a network of drainages including Vinini Creek and Rutabaga Creek. The presence of numerous mining prospects scattered across the slopes reflects the region's enduring mineral exploration history. Cultural features are sparse but significant, centered on the Roberts Creek Ranch in the southern portion of the quadrangle. A primary historical corridor is visible along the southern edge, where the Old Pony Express Trail crosses the terrain near a local Corral. This survey illustrates a remote ranching and mining environment, where water sources like Pete Hanson Creek and various stock tanks are the primary markers of human activity amidst the high peaks of Roberts Creek Mountain.
