2012 Map of The Monitor

About this map

Monitor Ranch and The Homestead sit at the intersection of a sparse road network in this high-elevation Nevada landscape. The terrain is defined by the eastern slopes of the Toiyabe Range, where drainage patterns like Stoneberger Cr and Willow Cr carve through the arid basin. Named features like The Monitor and Sams Canyon provide orientation points in a region dominated by vast open range and National Forest land. The presence of Laxague and several designated Forest Service routes, such as NFD 001 RD, indicates the area's continued use for ranching and resource management. This map illustrates the intersection of historical grazing lands and the rugged topography of the Great Basin.
