Roberts Mountains dominate this high-desert landscape in central Nevada, rising to the prominent summit of Cooper Peak. The terrain is defined by a series of deep drainage systems, including Pete Hanson Canyon and Gabel Canyon, which channel seasonal water from the heights down toward the broad Denay Valley in the north. The map reveals a network of vital water sources in this arid environment, such as Lower Dry Creek Spring and Upper Dry Creek Spring, which have historically been essential for livestock and travelers. While modern access is indicated by Tonkin Rd, the area remains characterized by its complex topography and numerous named drainages like Niel Cr and Pete Hanson Cr. This 2018 survey provides an exact record of the Township and Range boundaries across the mountainous interior of Eureka County.
