2014 Map of Cherry Creek Station
USGS Topo · Published 2014About this map
Cherry Creek Station serves as the focal point of this high-desert landscape in White Pine County, where the desert floor of the Steptoe Valley meets the rising slopes of the Cherry Creek Range. The map reveals a series of prominent drainages cutting through the mountains, including Exchequer Canyon, Montgomery Canyon, and Rattlesnake Canyon. These geological features point to the region's historic mining and ranching character, supported by vital water sources like Cherry Creek Hot Springs and Steptoe Waterhole. Modern infrastructure is represented by the path of NV-489 and county routes like CR-785, which navigate the wide-open spaces between the range and the persistent flow of Duck Cr. This 2014 survey documents the enduring settlement patterns and essential water locations required for life in the Great Basin.
