2021 Map of Contact

USGS Topo · Published 2021

About this map

Contact is situated in the high desert of northeast Nevada, serving as a primary point of interest along the southern bend of Salmon Falls Cr. The settlement is defined by a grid including Main St and Elko Ave, positioned where the valley begins to rise toward the high ridges of the Salmon River Range. This 2021 survey illustrates a landscape deeply shaped by drainage and topography, from the northern expanse of Cottonwood Field to the peaks of Ellen D Mtn and Tabletop Mtn. The hydrology of the area is detailed through several seasonal and perennial sources, including Blue Jay Cr, Townsend Cr, and Bear Spring. Landmarks such as White Ridge, Mahogany Basin, and Bonanza Canyon provide specific points of reference for those studying the physical geography and ranching history of Elko County.
