About this map

Butte Valley serves as the vast, open floor for this high-desert landscape where the Elko and White Pine county line divides the terrain. Cattle ranching and water management define the human imprint on the land, evidenced by the presence of the Stratton Ranch, Snow Creek Ranch, and Paris Ranch. These isolated holdings rely on an intricate system of irrigation including the I. Ditch and Int. Ditch to divert water from the Cherry Creek Range into the valley below. Local history and genealogy researchers will find a small Cem near the northern boundary, alongside early infrastructure such as the Gravel Pit and scattered corrals. The transition from the flat basin to the high peaks is marked by rugged passages like Horse Canyon and the notable Currie Summit, illustrating the geography of late-twentieth-century rural Nevada before modern expansion.
