2014 Map of Valmy

About this map

Valmy sits at a critical junction of transportation and topography in the high desert, where the corridor of the Humboldt River shapes the local economy and infrastructure. In the early 21st century, this landscape is defined by its industrial and natural landmarks, including the prominent Lone Tree Hill and the vast Pumpernickel Valley to the north. The presence of Marigold Mine and several named springs, such as Stonehouse Spring and Plank Spring, highlights the persistent importance of mineral and water resources in this arid environment. Hydrological features like Herrin Slough, Cottonwood Cr, and Trout Cr cut through the terrain, illustrating the drainage patterns that influence travel along Stonehouse Hwy and Valmy Rd. Higher elevations are marked by Treaty Hill, providing a geographical anchor for the surrounding township and range survey lines.
