2015 Map of Campbell Creek Ranch

About this map

Campbell Creek Ranch stands as a focal point of human settlement in this high-desert landscape of Churchill County. The terrain is defined by the drainage of Campbell Cr, which cuts through the mountainous topography of the Desatoya Range. This 2015 survey illustrates the isolation and specialized land use common in the Great Basin, where water sources dictate the location of ranching outposts. The map documents the relationship between the few named water features and the established ranch, providing a clear view of the rural infrastructure and land management patterns in central Nevada at the start of the twenty-first century.
