2018 Map of Roberts Creek Mountain

About this map

Roberts Creek Mtn and the broader Roberts Mountains dominate this high-desert landscape in Eureka County, where seasonal drainages carve deep incisions through the terrain. The hydrological network is defined by several key watercourses, including Roberts Cr, which flows southward toward the Roberts Cr Reservoir near the base of the range. To the north and west, the terrain breaks into steep-walled corridors such as Pete Hanson Canyon and Cottonwood Canyon, while isolated water sources like Cherry Spring provided essential stopovers in an otherwise arid environment. Transportation through this remote section of Nevada is limited, primarily represented by Garden Pass Rd in the southeast corner. This 2018 survey illustrates a land largely managed for its natural resources and watershed value, with a topography that dictates movement and settlement patterns based on the availability of water from creeks like Vinini Cr and Pete-Hanson Cr.
