2014 Map of Ninemile Well

About this map

Butte Valley dominates the western half of this landscape, a flat expanse defined by the high desert of White Pine County. The terrain shifts dramatically in the east as it rises into the Cherry Creek Range, where the steep topography of Clonch Canyon and prominent landmarks like Sevenmile Point provide stark vertical relief. Significant local landmarks such as Mustang Hill and Black Mtn anchor the southern portion of the survey. The eponymous Ninemile Well stands as a vital water source along the primitive route of CR-19, representing the sparse but essential infrastructure required for ranching and travel in this arid Great Basin environment.
