About this map

The Humboldt River corridor defines the geography of this central Nevada landscape, where the valley floor transitions into the heights of the Shoshone Range and the Sheep Creek Range. This 2021 survey documents the persistent transportation and settlement patterns of the region, anchored by the community of Argenta and the rail-side locations of Kampos and Mosel. The terrain is marked by significant topographical features including Argenta Rim and Argenta Butte, which rise sharply south of the river.

Water management and natural drainage are evident in the complex network of Blue House Slough, the White House Ditch, and Rock Cr. These features, alongside Boulder Valley and Boulder Flat, illustrate the delicate balance of land use in an arid environment. The map provides a detailed view of local access via Rock Creek Rd and the Frontage Rd, serving as a modern record of this historic transit route through Lander County.
