About this map

The Bull Run Mountains dominate this high-altitude landscape in the 1980s, revealing a history of mineral extraction within the Humboldt National Forest. Prospecting activity is evident through the presence of the Blue Jacket Mine, Aura King Mine, and Golden Eagle Mine, situated among steep drainages like California Gulch and Maggie Gulch. This period shows the persistence of isolated mountain agriculture at the Columbia Ranch, located near the headwaters of Columbia Creek. The terrain transitions from the rugged peaks of Pennsylvania Hill down into the expansive Bull Run Basin and Columbia Basin to the south. Notable geographic landmarks include Maggie Summit and a network of named watercourses such as Silver Creek and Alexander Creek, which trace the complex hydrology of northern Elko County.
