2014 Map of Harrison Pass

About this map

Harrison Pass serves as a critical topographic notch through the high elevations of the Ruby Mountains, providing a primary passage through this portion of the Humboldt National Forest. The landscape is defined by a radial drainage pattern where numerous creeks, including Toyn Cr, Pearl Cr, and Green Mountain Cr, descend from the steep ridgelines. The transition from high peaks like Rattlesnake Mtn to the canyon floors below is marked by a network of forest roads such as Natl Forest Develop Road 113 Rd and CR-718. This survey provides a clear view of the high-altitude hydrology and the specific corridors used to navigate this part of Elko County, tracing the paths of Indian Cr and Brown Cr as they move toward the valley floors.
