2014 Map of Sheep Creek Range NE

About this map

Sheep Creek Range dominates this portion of the Great Basin, where the high desert terrain transitions into the broad expanse of Boulder Valley. This 2014 survey captures the topographical character of the borderlands between Lander County and Eureka County, revealing a landscape defined by drainage patterns and elevation shifts rather than dense settlement. The presence of Boulder Cr in the southeastern corner provides a rare water feature in this arid environment, illustrating the natural focal points for historical land use and livestock movement in the region. The map meticulously documents the Public Land Survey System grid across Townships 36 North, Range 47 East and 35 North, Range 48 East, serving as a foundational record for tracing property boundaries and land management history in these rural Nevada counties.
