2021 Map of Buffalo Creek

USGS Topo · Published 2021

About this map

Buffalo Meadows and the northern reaches of the Smoke Creek Desert define this high-desert corridor in Washoe County. The landscape is a network of seasonal water sources and topographic landmarks essential for navigation and survival in this arid region, including Trail Canyon Spring, Rosebush Spring, and Rimrock Spring. The presence of these springs, tucked into folds of the terrain near Grass Mtn and Lone Mtn, illustrates the historical reliance on reliable water points for transit across the Great Basin.
