2021 Map of Ferber Peak NW

About this map

Goshute Mountains rise along the western edge of this high-desert landscape in Elko County, defining a topography characterized by dramatic elevation changes. This region is marked by the Little White Horse Hills, which occupy the central portion of the survey area, creating a complex series of ridges and valleys that transition toward the eastern drainage systems. The presence of Ferber Wash in the northeast indicates the seasonal water patterns that have historically shaped movement and settlement through this arid corridor. The absence of modern roads or dense infrastructure underscores the continuity of this landscape, which has remained largely undeveloped and focused on grazing and natural resource management throughout the late twentieth and early twenty-first centuries.
