1972 Map of Hobo Canyon

USGS Topo · Published 1976

About this map

The eastern margins of the Black Rock Desert meet the rising slopes of the Jackson Mountains in this early 1970s topographic study. This specific interface between the alkaline flats and the highland reveals a landscape defined by seasonal water and isolated ranching operations. The Jackson Creek Ranch serves as a primary human landmark in this arid expanse, situated near where Jackson Creek flows from the mountains toward the desert sink.
