2021 Map of Ninemile Mountain

USGS Topo · Published 2021

About this map

Ninemile Mtn and the surrounding high desert terrain dominate this northeastern Nevada landscape within Elko County. The map documents a rugged section of the Great Basin characterized by significant relief, featuring the Ninemile Ridge to the north and the northern edge of the Leach Range at the southern boundary. Steep canyons and seasonal drainage systems, including Wildhorse Canyon and Kane Canyon, define the local topography, indicating a landscape shaped by intermittent water flow. The naming convention of local landmarks suggests early distance-marking by travelers or ranchers, as seen in both Fivemile Draw and Twentyone Mile Draw. This modern U.S. Geological Survey survey illustrates the enduring wilderness character of the region, where topographical prominent points like Tony Mtn serve as the primary navigation markers in an area largely devoid of permanent settlements or infrastructure.
