2012 Map of Odgers Ranch

About this map

Odgers Ranch serves as a primary point of reference in this high-desert portion of Elko County, where the landscape is defined by the critical locations of water sources. The map details a network of vital watering points including Fasano Spring, Quilici Spring, and Taylor Spring, which sustain livestock and travel through this arid terrain. These springs are linked by a series of established corridors such as Butte Valley Rd and Medicine Spring Rd. To the northeast, the West Buttes provide a prominent topographical break in the valley floor. The drainage of Butte Creek winds through the southern section of the quadrangle, illustrating the natural water management patterns that have historically dictated the placement of ranching operations in the Great Basin.
