2018 Map of Dunphy

About this map

The Humboldt River carves a winding path through this portion of the Great Basin, defining the landscape between the Boulder Valley to the north and the rising terrain of the Shoshone Range to the south. In the river's floodplain, a complex system of water management is visible through features like the Blue House Ditch, Blue House Slough, and Rock Cr Ditch, reflecting the region's reliance on irrigation for ranching and agriculture. The settlement of Dunphy sits along the northern bank, while the communities of Shoshone and Rixies are positioned along the southern transportation corridor. Topographically, the map transitions from the level expanse of Boulder Flat into the high relief of the Argenta Rim and Shoshone Point, with Dunphy Pass providing a natural break in the mountain peaks.
