2021 Map of Rawhide

About this map

The Rawhide area, straddling the boundary of Churchill Co and Mineral Co, is defined by a cluster of named peaks and ridges that speak to its mineral-rich past. The landscape is dominated by the Sand Springs Range and the Rawhide Hills, where individual landmarks such as Balloon Hill, Hooligan Hill, and Grutt Hill surround the primary settlement. These features, along with Stingaree Gulch, outline the concentrated geography of this high-desert locale. Local history is anchored by the Rawhide Cem, located north of the town center, while broader terrain features like Chicago Mtn and Buckskin Mtn provide context for the remote topography. The grid of township and range lines, including t14n r32e, underscores the systematic surveying of this arid interior, where named heights like Squaw Peak and Crazy Hill serve as navigational markers across the desert floor.
