1974 Map of Desert Ranch

USGS Topo · Published 1977

About this map

Desert Ranch serves as a remote hub in this corner of Elko County, situated in a high-desert landscape defined by seasonal watercourses and isolation. The 1970s terrain is dominated by the Desert Ranch Reservoir (Chimney Creek Res), which captures the flow of Fourmile Creek and Chimney Creek. The infrastructure reflects a specialized ranching economy, where water management is paramount to sustaining operations in the arid basin.
