About this map

The Little Owyhee River snakes through the high desert landscape of this 1980 survey, illustrating the stark hydrology of northeastern Nevada. This quadrangle captures the junction of the Humboldt Co and Elko Co boundary, a remote region where infrastructure is limited to an occasional Pipeline and a network of Jeep Trails. To the north, Raven Creek feeds into the basin, while the eastern edge of the map features the enigmatic Dobe Doc water label. The topography is defined by the canyon cut of the river against the surrounding plateau, providing a clear record of the access routes used for ranching or resource management in the late 1970s. This document is particularly useful for understanding the exact placement of the Indefinite Boundary and the sparse transport network of this high-altitude terrain.
