2021 Map of Hobo Canyon

About this map

The Quinn River skims the northern boundary of this high-desert landscape, where the flat alkaline expanse of the Black Rock Desert meets the steep western face of the Jackson Mountains. This map documents a transitional zone defined by dramatic elevation changes, where seasonal drainages like Mary Sloan Cr and Jackson Cr descend through deep clefts such as Mike O'Brian Canyon and Christiorsson Canyon. The presence of Jackson Creek Ranch Rd serves as the primary artery through this arid region, tracing the base of the mountains to connect remote ranching sites. To the west, the Jackson Cr Slough meanders across the playa, illustrating the complex hydrology of the Great Basin where water from Hobo Canyon and Alaska Canyon eventually loses its definition in the desert floor.
