About this map

Charleston serves as the primary landmark in this high-altitude landscape of northeast Nevada, situated at the confluence of several watercourses including Seventysix Cr and the Bruneau River. The terrain is defined by dramatic elevation changes, moving from the heights of the Copper Mountains and the Fox Creek Range down into the deep incisions of Bruneau Canyon and Miles Canyon.

Evidence of the region's ranching and prospecting history is found in the many named drainages and basins, such as Cornwall Basin and Jungle Basin. Remote outposts like Mud Springs and various gulches including Cassidy Post Gulch, Inez Gulch, and Marie Gulch suggest a history of localized water management and land use within the Humboldt National Forest. This 2014 survey documents the complex network of forest access roads like Annie Creek Dr and Gold Creek Dr that navigate this isolated corner of Elko County.
