2023 Map of Oregon Canyon

USGS Topo · Published 2023

About this map

The South Fork Little Humboldt River carves through this high-desert landscape of Elko County, marking a complex drainage system that defines the local geography. Significant elevation changes are anchored by Castle Ridge to the north and the Owyhee Bluffs along the southern margin. The central portion of the map is dominated by the namesake Oregon Canyon and the adjacent Oregon Flat, which sit between the prominent Pole Creek Ridge and the winding course of the river. This area's hydrology is characterized by numerous seasonal and perennial water sources, including the strategically located Castle Spring and the cluster of Thousand Springs. The map also preserves indigenous naming with Ishape'-Naokwaide, reflecting the deep cultural history of these remote basins. Various tributaries like Brush Creek and Midas Creek further illustrate the intricate watershed that supports this high-altitude rangeland.
