2021 Map of Jordan Meadow

About this map

Jordan Meadow defines the heart of this high-desert basin, where drainage patterns from the surrounding peaks converge into a complex system of seasonal creeks. The landscape is structured by the prominent Jordan Meadow Mtn to the west and the Sentinel Hills in the northeast, creating a natural corridor that has historically supported livestock and grazing. Water sources are critical in this arid environment, evidenced by the presence of Indian Spring and the meandering path of Crowley Cr through the Trout Creek Valley. This area reflects the remote ranching and grazing geography of northern Nevada, where named features often revolve around the few reliable meadows and springs like Jordan Meadow Flat that provide respite from the sagebrush-covered hills.
