2021 Map of Pearl Peak

USGS Topo · Published 2021

About this map

Pearl Peak and the high ridges of the Ruby Mountains dominate this high-altitude landscape in Elko County. The map details a transition from the protected terrain of the Humboldt National Forest to the marshlands of the Ruby Lake National Wildlife Refuge in the southeast. Water is a defining element of this arid region, marked by named sources like Flyn Spring, Pearl Lake, and Y Pond. An intricate network of pack trails, including the Well Middle Trl and Mitchell 5 Trl, suggests a history of livestock grazing and backcountry access within the national forest. The small settlement of Shanty Town sits on the edge of the Ruby Valley, serving as a waypoint near the refuge boundary. Named peaks like Cass House Peak and Rattlesnake Mtn frame the steep drainages of Rocky Canyon and Cave Creek Canyon.
