About this map

Mount Ichabod and the Fox Creek Range dominate this high-desert landscape in northeastern Nevada, where the drainage systems of the Bruneau River and E Fork Beaver Cr define the high country. The map documents a rugged cattle-country geography marked by remote water sources like the Charleston Reservoir and Dry Lake Reservoir, which are vital in this arid environment. Ranching history is implied by the presence of named grazing areas such as Evans Flat and the high-altitude Jenkins Meadows.

Transport is limited to primitive routes like CR-748, which winds through topographic landmarks including Mason Mtn and Wild Horse Mtn. The terrain is deeply incised by drainages such as Rattlesnake Canyon and Mud Spring Gulch, illustrating the complex watershed that feeds the northern river systems. This survey captures the isolated character of Elko County, focusing on the natural landmarks and water infrastructure essential to the region's land use.
