2021 Map of Fox Mountain

About this map

Granite Range dominates this corner of Washoe County, where high ridges and deep canyons define the landscape. The terrain is marked by prominent summits such as Fox Mtn and Mahogany Peak, with water sources like Potato Patch Spring and Ferdalin Spring providing critical points of interest in an otherwise arid environment. The presence of Grass Valley Reservoir in the northeast and the winding course of Cottonwood Cr suggest a landscape managed for water resources. Human movement through this topography is anchored by Old Camp Canyon Rd, which skirts the southern slopes near No Savvy Cr. This 2021 survey illustrates a region where names like Mahogany Troughs and Summit Spring Canyon reflect the localized landmarks used by ranchers and outdoorsmen navigating the Great Basin.
