2011 Map of Hardscrabble
USGS Topo · Published 2011About this map
Hardscrabble centers this high-desert landscape in Humboldt County, where ranching history and rugged topography converge. The terrain is marked by essential water management features like Goat Corral Flat Reservoir, Buckhorn Reservoir, and Horse Basin Reservoir, which support livestock in an arid environment defined by the Ararat Hills and Goat Corral Mountain. Transport through this portion of Nevada relies on the prominent Greely Crossing Rd, which navigates the drainage basins of Martin Creek and Rock Creek. These waterways, along with numerous named springs such as Reinhart Spring and Rattlesnake Spring, illustrate the critical importance of water sources to the remote outposts and geographic identity of the region.
