2012 Map of Bobs Flat

About this map

Whirlwind Valley and the sprawling basin of Bobs Flat define this section of the Great Basin, where the meandering course of the Humboldt River cuts across the southwest corner. The landscape is characterized by wide-open desert terrain punctuated by seasonal watercourses like Bob Creek and Mack Creek. Evidence of local land use is centered around Weber Ranch in the northeast, while the corridor near Dunphy marks a vital transportation artery through the region. Significant topographical features like Welches Cyn channel toward the valley floor, illustrating the drainage patterns that have shaped this portion of Eureka County. This survey reflects the modern infrastructure and rural land holdings that persist in this sparsely populated Nevada interior.
