About this map

The Humboldt River winds through this northern Nevada landscape, carving a fertile corridor amidst the surrounding desert and canyons. In this early 21st-century record, the settlement of Cosgrave sits near the river's path, reflecting the historic reliance on this water source in the arid Great Basin. The landscape is defined by its drainage systems, including Raspberry Creek and Central Creek, which flow from named elevations such as Florence Hill.

Tracing the local infrastructure reveals Tungsten Rd leading toward the settlement of Tungsten, while the presence of the Raspberry Post Office provides a specific point of interest for those researching rural mail routes and local history. The map also documents numerous drainage features like Pole Canyon and Olsen Canyon, illustrating the complex topography that directs water toward the Humboldt valley.
