1956 Map of Walti Hot Springs

USGS Topo · Published 1957

About this map

The Simpson Park Range dominates this mid-century survey of the Lander and Eureka county line, where high-altitude peaks like McClusky Peak and Fagin Mtn look down upon the expansive Grass Valley. This arid landscape is defined by its vital water sources, ranging from the thermal waters at Hot Springs and Little Hot Springs to a network of isolated tanks and springs supporting local livestock operations. Settlement is concentrated around established outposts such as Walti Ranch, Allen Ranch, and Baumann Ranch, connected by primitive jeep trails that navigate the steep breaks of Moonshine Canyon and Potato Canyon. The map records the intersection of resource extraction and ranching life, notably at the Keystone Mine and the appropriately named Cowboy Rest along Callaghan Creek.
