2014 Map of Bailey Mountain

About this map

Bailey Mountain rises as the central landmark in this Elko County landscape, where the high desert terrain is defined by a complex network of seasonal drainages and spring-fed basins. During this era, the area remained a remote stretch of Nevada, marked primarily by its topographic relief and traditional water sources like Toole Springs and Twin Springs. The drainage patterns show a clear divide, with Cottonwood Draw and Robinson Creek branching into segments like S Br Cottonwood Cr and the S Fork Robinson Cr. To the west, the deep indentation of Copper Canyon and the small course of Pony Cr suggest the kind of isolated pockets that have long drawn prospectors and ranchers to the Great Basin.
