2018 Map of Arabia

About this map

The Humboldt River and its accompanying riparian wetlands dominate the southeastern corner of this Pershing County landscape, where the Taylor Canal and Upper Valley irrigation infrastructure support local agriculture. The terrain shifts dramatically to the west as the floor rises into the steep slopes of Trinity Canyon and South Trinity Canyon. Historic transport routes like the Old Emigrant Rd trace the path of earlier migrations through this arid region, while modern ranching operations are noted by labels such as Wolf Creek Ranch Rd and Shearer Ranch Rd. The settlement of Arabia sits in the northeastern hills, while Colado provides a point of reference along the southern transit corridor. A network of primitive roads, including Poker Brown Camp Rd, reaches into more isolated areas like Black Rock Canyon, illustrating the modern management of these traditional ranching and mining lands.
