About this map

Cedar Mtn rises above a complex network of high-desert drainages in this remote corner of Elko County. The landscape is defined by the erosion patterns of Goose Cr, which carves through the terrain near Record Bluff. The map captures the meeting of several significant watercourses, including Horse Cr and Little Goose Cr, alongside the more defined relief of Bluff Canyon.

Tracing the northern edge of the Goose Creek Mountains, the survey shows a territory largely shaped by topography rather than human settlement. The absence of modern towns highlights the area's role as a vast rangeland, where the only infrastructure is the occasional rural route like CR-762. This map provides a detailed view of the natural breaks and draws, such as Cedar Mountain Draw, that have dictated movement through these uplands for generations.
