1979 Map of Wolf Hole Mtn West

About this map

Wolf Hole Mountain and Black Rock Mountain dominate this high-desert landscape in the late 1970s, where survival centers on a network of remote water sources. The map reveals the infrastructure of an arid cattle-ranching or wildlife-management region, with livestock and wildlife relying on features like Maple Reservoir, Low Mountain Reservoir, and numerous named springs such as Atkin Spring and Mustang Spring. The presence of the Wolf Hole Wildlife Res in the northeast corner underscores the area's role as a protected habitat. Travel across the difficult terrain is restricted to established Jeep Trails and Pack Trails that navigate through Maple Canyon and over Little Wolf Pass. This survey provides a record of the high-country hydrology and transit routes before more modern developments, preserving the names of local landmarks like Pocum Cove and Hodgets Canyon.
