1987 Map of Star Creek Ranch

USGS Topo · Published 1987

About this map

The Humboldt Range dominates the western half of this 1980s provisional survey, where steep drainages like Santa Clara Canyon and Bloody Canyon cut through the high terrain. The era's industrial activity is evident in the numerous Mine Shafts, an Adit, and several Prospects concentrated along the mountain slopes, indicating a landscape heavily shaped by mineral exploration. To the east, the topography transitions abruptly into the broad expanse of the Buena Vista Valley and Dun Glen Flat. This lowland area is characterized by sparse settlement, centered on the Star Creek Ranch and supported by infrastructure such as Landing Strips and a network of ditches. Water management in this arid environment is highlighted by the presence of Star Creek, several wells, and a Ditch system, reflecting the vital relationship between limited water resources and ranching operations in Pershing County.
