2012 Map of Red Ledges

About this map

Cow Camp serves as a lone human marker in this drainage-dominated landscape of White Pine County, where water movement has carved the high desert terrain. The eponymous Red Ledges rise in the southeast, providing a geological anchor to a region defined by seasonal watercourses like Murphy Wash and Johns Wash. These intermittent streams dictate the orientation of the local infrastructure, with routes such as Johns Wash Rd and the Natl Forest Develop Road 451 Rd following the natural contours of the land. In the northeast, the terrain deepens into West Fork Canyon, while The Troughs in the south indicate specific points of water management or livestock use. The network of county and forest roads, including Co Rd-1116, provides a clear view of how this area is accessed for ranching and resource management.
