2012 Map of Schroeder Mountain

About this map

Maggie Creek winds through the center of this high desert terrain, carving the notable Maggie Creek Canyon as it flows southeast toward the Humboldt River basin. The landscape is defined by significant elevations, including Schroeder Mountain and Maggie Peak, while Marys Mountain anchors the southwestern corner. This area in Elko County shows a network of remote access routes such as Maggie Creek Rd and James Creek Rd, which follow the natural contours of the drainage basins. A lone landmark of human activity, Hadleys Windmill, stands near the eastern edge, indicating the long-standing reliance on groundwater for ranching in this arid environment. Several smaller tributaries, including Simon Creek, Lynn Creek, and Soap Creek, feed into the primary waterway, illustrating the complex hydrologic system of the Nevada interior during the early 21st century.
