2015 Map of Elevenmile Well

About this map

Elevenmile Well serves as a lonely landmark in this high-desert expanse of northeastern Nevada, where the border of Elko and Humboldt counties meets. The landscape is defined by the ephemeral drainages of Evans Cr and Jake Cr, which carve subtle paths through the township and range grid. This 2015 survey reveals a terrain largely uninterrupted by dense settlement, where the remote Field Rd provides one of the few managed access points across the sagebrush-covered basins. Local history researchers can trace the precise county boundary lines as they bisect these ranchlands, offering a clear view of the rural infrastructure and water sources that sustain livestock operations in this arid region.
