2012 Map of Knoll Mountain SE

About this map

Thousand Springs Creek meanders through a landscape defined by the high desert basins of northeast Nevada, offering a detailed view of the water sources and drainage patterns essential to this region. The map tracks the seasonal waters of Burnt Creek as they flow from the rugged slopes of the H D Range, carving through the earth toward the broad Thousand Springs Valley. This 2012 survey illustrates the network of unpaved local roads and trails that intersect the terrain, including the primary corridor of Co HWY 765. The topography reveals the natural barriers and canyons, such as Corral Canyon, that have influenced ranching and land use in this part of Elko County. It is a precise record of the physical geography and minor infrastructure of a remote portion of the Great Basin.
