1959 Map of Sacramento Pass

USGS Topo · Published 1970

About this map

Osceola (Site) and Black Horse (Site) stand as quiet reminders of Nevada's mining past, appearing here only as named locations rather than active settlements. Located within the high-altitude landscape of the Humboldt National Forest, the map details a region defined by its rugged peaks, including Windy Peak and Bald Mtn, and the critical passage of Sacramento Pass. The transition from the broad, flat Spring Valley to the Snake Range is marked by numerous water sources such as South Bastian Spring and Willard Springs, which were essential for the small mining outposts and ranching operations like Hogum. This 1959 survey records a landscape of resource extraction, noting the Crystal Queen Mine and a Burnt Mill, while also identifying family-related features like Graves near the former site of Black Horse. The presence of Stella Lake and Blue Lake in the southern high country highlights the varied hydrology of the range.
