About this map

Robinson Mountain dominates the southern landscape of this high-elevation Elko County region, where intricate drainage systems define the rugged Basin and Range topography. The map details a complex network of seasonal and perennial water sources vital to the high desert, including Crane Springs and Rock Springs. These water points, along with Dixie Creek and Little Porter Creek, represent the essential geography for ranching and wildlife in the modern West.

To the north, the Dixie Hills and the deep cut of Cissillini Canyon showcase the sharp relief of the area. The terrain is marked by established township and range lines, such as t30n r54e, reflecting the systematic Bureau of Land Management surveying that governs this part of Nevada. This survey provides a precise record of the land's physical contours and hydrology as they existed in the early twenty-first century.
