2021 Map of Deer Creek Slough

USGS Topo · Published 2021

About this map

The Black Rock Desert landscape dominates this 2021 study, where the low-lying basin meets the surrounding uplands of Humboldt County. The complex hydrology of the region is traced through the Quinn River and the braided channels of the Deer Cr Slough. These seasonal watercourses and sloughs illustrate the drainage patterns typical of this arid corridor, where even minor elevation changes like Windy Point and The Mesa create significant landmarks in the otherwise level basin. To the southeast, the Deer Creek Reservoir stands as a primary water management feature near the intersection of the Jackson Cr Slough. Transportation in this remote area is limited to established routes like Leonard Creek Rd, which skirts the base of the western hills, providing access to the vast desert floor and the seasonal flows of Deep Cr.
