2021 Map of Bloody Run Peak

About this map

Bloody Run Peak rises as a dominant landmark in this portion of the Santa Rosa Range, defining a landscape of high summits and deep drainage systems in Humboldt County. The eastern slopes are carved by the dramatic Paiute Canyon and Pinson Canyon, while the western edge of the mountains gives way to the broad, flat expanse of the Silver State Valley. This high-desert terrain is marked by essential water sources like Bathtub Spring and the seasonal flow of Bloody Run Cr. Travel through the area is limited to established routes such as Sand Pass Rd and Betes Rd, which skirt the base of the Bloody Run Hills. The map captures the classic Basin and Range topography where steep canyons like Crossover Canyon and South Water Canyon provide the only natural passage through the mountain wall.
