2018 Map of Battle Creek Ranch

About this map

Battle Creek Ranch sits at the western base of the high country, where the steep elevations of the Black Rock Range descend into the northern margins of the Black Rock Desert. This 2018 survey illustrates the remote ranching landscape of Humboldt County, defined by seasonal watercourses like Bottle Cr and Bartlett Cr that drain the canyons. The primary corridor through this arid terrain is Leonard Creek Rd, which skirts the edge of the range and provides access to localized water sources such as House Spring. The geography is marked by sharp relief, notably at Pearl Canyon and Rough Canyon, showing the transition from the rugged mountain peaks to the flat, expansive alkali flats of the desert floor.
