About this map

The Kings River Valley and the northern reaches of the Double H Mountains define this high desert landscape in Humboldt County. The namesake Sod House settlement and nearby Sod House Point sit along the banks of the Quinn River, which meanders through a valley characterized by its remote ranching and water infrastructure. The map documents an era of resource management, featuring the Sod House-Quinn River Well and the whimsically named Gone With The Wind Well. To the northwest, the corner of the Fort McDermitt Indian Reservation overlaps the terrain near the Quinn River Lakes. Notable landmarks such as Riverside Ranch and a Radio Facility illustrate the sparse but essential points of human activity in this arid basin, while features like Moonshine Canyon and Cheuetto Spring mark the rugged interior of the mountain range.
