2018 Map of Red Cow Creek
USGS Topo · Published 2018About this map
The Tuscarora Mountains dominate the landscape of this high-desert portion of Elko County, where the topography is defined by intricate drainage networks feeding into the Humboldt River basin. Water sources are vital in this arid environment, evidenced by the courses of Chino Cr, Amazon Cr, and Red Cow Cr as they navigate the mountain slopes. The land is strictly partitioned by the Public Land Survey System, with the intersections of several townships—including t41n r49e and t41n r50e—marking the administrative history of Nevada's ranching and mining heartland. This 2018 survey provides a precise record of the elevation contours and natural water features that have dictated land use in the region for generations.
