2021 Map of Harris Canyon

USGS Topo · Published 2021

About this map

Shores sits within a landscape defined by seasonal drainages and high desert basins in this remote corner of Elko County. The terrain is characterized by the descent from Rocky Peak toward the flats, with Harris Canyon and Willow Cr forming the primary north-south corridor. The map reveals a sparse ranching and range environment where water is the critical resource, evidenced by scattered features like Mud Springs, Chalk Spring, and Cold Springs Cr. Transportation is limited to rugged tracks and the established O'neil Co Rd, reflecting the isolation of this high-elevation plateau. The presence of Eagle Flat and Bull Camp Cr suggests a landscape utilized for seasonal grazing, where the survival of small outposts like Shores depended entirely on the management of intermittent water sources such as Dry Cr and Jakes Cr.
