2012 Map of Frazier Creek

About this map

Henderson Creek and its many seasonal tributaries define this high-altitude landscape in central Nevada as it appeared in the early 21st century. The map centers on the open expanse of Pine Field, where the creek bed parallels a modern north-south transit corridor. Reliable water sources, essential for ranching and survival in this arid environment, are marked by McCloud Spring near Bailey Pass and Rabbit Spring to the northwest. The drainage patterns of Frazier Creek illustrate the natural runoff systems that have shaped the topography of Eureka County. This survey provides a precise look at the hydrology and land use of a region where mountain passes and intermittent springs dictated the historical movement of people and livestock.
