1989 Map of Wildcat Peak

USGS Topo · Published 1990

About this map

Wildcat Peak dominates the southern landscape of this central Nevada survey, serving as a high-altitude anchor for the surrounding Toquima Range. This high-desert environment is defined by a series of steep drainages, including Stoneberger Canyon and White Rock Canyon, which descend toward the surrounding basins. Evidence of early land use and resource extraction is scattered throughout the terrain, indicated by a Prospect near Mill Canyon and various Prospects in the vicinity of Copper Mine Spring. Water is the primary driver of human presence in this arid portion of the Toiyabe National Forest. The map documents numerous isolated water sources, from the White Rock Springs to the solitary Wildcat Spring. Cultural landmarks like Indian Ranch suggest historical habitations in a landscape otherwise dominated by natural features like Sawlog Ridge and Masket Peak.
