2018 Map of Sod House

About this map

The Quinn River meanders through the high desert of Humboldt County, defining the drainage patterns of this arid landscape. This 2018 survey captures the intersection of natural features and historic transit routes, most notably at the small settlement of Sod House. To the north, the Double H Mountains provide significant relief against the surrounding basin, while Sod House Point serves as a prominent landform overlooking the river's path. The presence of Cheuetto Spring and the Quinn River Lakes highlights the scarce but vital water sources in this region. This map is particularly useful for tracing the path of the Old Winnemucca-Denio Rd, a primary desert thoroughfare that meets Sod House Rd near the namesake settlement.
