2012 Map of Ruby City Creek

About this map

The Franklin River drainage dominates this high-desert basin in eastern Nevada, where seasonal watercourses descend from the surrounding heights toward the floor of Butte Vly. This 2012 survey reveals a landscape primarily defined by its drainage network and ranching access roads. Notable features include the convergence of Ruby City Cr, Robinson Cr, and Withington Cr as they flow eastward. A solitary Po label suggests a focal point for the rural community, while the presence of N Ruby Valley Rd and Ruby Valley Rd indicates the primary north-south transit corridor through the valley. The map also records smaller tributaries such as Griswold Cr, Sharps Cr, and Smith Creek, illustrating the complex hydrology of the Great Basin region during the early 21st century.
