About this map

Jake Creek Mountain and the Owyhee Bluffs define this high-desert region of Elko County during the mid-1960s. The landscape is characterized by a complex network of seasonal water sources, including Big Spring, Sawtooth Spring, and Indian Spring, which feed into the Little Humboldt River and Clover Creek. Human activity is concentrated at the Upper Clover Ranch, a notable ranching outpost situated near an isolated Landing Strip and Evans Creek. The presence of numerous jeep trails and pack trails crossing the high ridges suggests a reliance on specialized vehicles and pack animals to navigate the steep terrain between these scattered water points and grazing lands.
