1989 Map of The Monitor

USGS Topo · Published 1990

About this map

Toiyabe National Forest dominates the western landscape of this high-desert basin, where the rugged slopes of the Toquima Range meet the broad expanse of Monitor Valley. This 1989 provisional survey captures a remote ranching and resource-extraction landscape defined by ephemeral water sources and isolated human outposts. Ranching activity is centered around the Monitor Ranch and The Homestead, supported by a Landing Strip and a series of water management features including a Gaging Station and several Borrow Pits. The map reveals the quiet industrial footprint of the era through scattered Prospects and a Gravel Pit, while natural landmarks like The Monitor and drainage systems like Stoneberger Creek and Willow Creek provide the primary geographic framework for this sparsely populated corner of central Nevada.
