2011 Map of Long Canyon

About this map

The Antelope Range dominates this landscape in Humboldt County, where drainage patterns are defined by the convergence of Long Canyon and Box Canyon. This 2011 survey illustrates a sparse desert environment where water sources like Box Canyon Spring Number Two are critical landmarks. Human presence is primarily indicated by a minimal network of unpaved tracks, including Ely Rd and Woody Canyon Rd, which navigate the arid terrain. The map reflects a modern period of land management where the traditional ranching and mining infrastructure of rural Nevada is documented alongside natural topographic features, showing how few permanent settlements exist in this isolated pocket of the Great Basin.
