2021 Map of Coyote Mountain

About this map

The Humboldt National Forest anchors the northwestern portion of this high-desert landscape, where the N Fork Little Humboldt River carves through the terrain between the Calico Mountains and Coyote Mtn. This arid region in Humboldt County is defined by its critical water sources, featuring a dense network of isolated springs such as Coyote Spring, Stewart Spring, and Frog Spring. The topography transitions from the open Owyhee Desert into complex canyon systems, including West Charlie Young Canyon and Charlie Young Canyon. Human activity in this remote environment is represented by livestock-related landmarks like Coon Corrals Flat and the Guard Corral Reservoir, alongside seasonal routes such as Greely Crossing Rd. These features indicate a landscape shaped by ranching and resource management within the Great Basin's drainage systems.
