1990 Map of White Pine Peak

About this map

White Pine Peak dominates the northern terrain of this quadrangle, situated within the eastern reaches of the Humboldt National Forest. This high-elevation landscape transitions south into the White Pine Range and Horse Range, where the steep topography gives way to the broad alluvial plains of Railroad Valley. Water sources are sparse but critical in this arid region, marked by Silver Spring and Crystal Spring, while Currant Creek drains the southern slopes. Human activity is evidenced by the isolated Angleworm Ranch and small-scale resource extraction. Scattered labels for a Mine, Prospect, and Gravel Pit suggest localized exploration and maintenance along the unimproved roads that snake through the canyons and across the valley floor.
