2021 Map of Montello Canyon

About this map

The Leach Range dominates this corner of Elko County, defining a landscape shaped by narrow canyons and vital high-desert water sources. In this arid reach of eastern Nevada, the drainage systems of Gamble Cr, Hoppie Cr, and Charley Cr create a network of seasonal waterways that have historically dictated movement and land use. The presence of Hoppie Basin Spring and Montello Springs highlights the critical points where groundwater reaches the surface, supporting the surrounding rangeland. To the southeast, a grid of residential streets including Oak St, Pine St, and Maple St indicates localized development near the canyon mouth. The map also traces the winding path of Hoppie Canyon Rd as it climbs through the complex topography of Hoppie Basin, providing a detailed look at the infrastructure required to navigate this portion of the Great Basin.
