About this map

Sheldon National Wildlife Refuge dominates this high desert landscape in Humboldt County, where the topography is defined by prominent peaks and vital water sources. The terrain rises sharply to Mahogany Mountain and the distinct volcanic forms of Bear Buttes, while Trough Mountain anchors the southeastern reaches of the quadrangle. This area serves as a critical corridor for wildlife, indicated by the network of seasonal drainages and springs like Tenmile Spring and Rock Spring that dot the arid basins.
