2018 Map of Hot Springs Creek

About this map

Hot Springs Cr meanders through this high-altitude corner of Elko County, feeding into the Marys River valley. The terrain is defined by dramatic hydrology, including the notable Devils Punch Bowl and the eponymous Hot Springs located in the southern portion of the quadrangle. Transport and access are primarily facilitated by the Charleston-Deeth Co Rd, which skirts the western edge of the area near Pole Canyon Creek Summit. This landscape demonstrates the essential nature of water sources in the Great Basin, marked by isolated points like Carlson Spring. Toward the east, the presence of the Marys River Ranch Airport indicates the role of private aviation in managing large ranching properties within these expansive drainage basins. The map provides a precise look at the township and range divisions, including t39n r59e, illustrating the cadastral framework of the Nevada backcountry.
