1972 Map of White Rock Peak

About this map

White Rock Mountains and the adjacent Hamlin Valley dominate this survey, which straddles the high desert border between Nevada and Utah. The landscape is dotted with evidence of early twentieth-century activity, including several named remote structures such as White Rock Cabin, Scotty's Cabin, and Reeds Cabin. These sites, often positioned near critical water sources like Log Cabin Spring or Quaking Aspen Springs, suggest a history of seasonal ranching or prospecting in an otherwise arid environment.
