About this map

The Cherry Creek Range dominates this corner of Elko County, Nevada, where the high-altitude landscape is defined by its seasonal water sources and steep drainages. Remote and sparsely developed, the area centers on the namesake Silo Canyon and the prominent Rocky Point. Connectivity in this basin-and-range terrain is provided by rugged paths like Butte Valley Rd and Cottonwood Canyon Rd, which follow the natural contours of the land. The presence of numerous named water sources, such as Hill Spring, Mustang Spring, and Augustine Spring, suggests the long-standing importance of this territory for livestock grazing and high-desert survival. From the depths of Denton Canyon to the reaches of Phalen Cr, the map records a workspace of ranching and natural landmarks.
