1965 Map of Squaw Valley Ranch

USGS Topo · Published 1967

About this map

Squaw Valley unfolds as a high-altitude ranching and mining landscape in Elko County, defined by its complex network of drainage creeks and early water management infrastructure. The presence of the High Line Canal cutting through the northern sections indicates a significant effort to divert water across this arid basin, supporting the central operations at Squaw Valley Ranch. The terrain transitions from the broad valley floor into steep, dissected uplands where the Sheep Corral Mine is situated, reflecting the dual economy of livestock and mineral extraction common to this part of Nevada. Hydrology is central to the area's identity, with numerous perennial sources such as Hot Lake and Ivanhoe Creek providing critical water in a landscape otherwise marked by seasonal flows like Frazer Creek and Rock Creek.
