About this map

Old Highway 95 serves as the primary north-south artery through this arid stretch of Humboldt County, tracing the historical corridor south of the Oregon border. The landscape is defined by the drainage patterns of several seasonal streams, including the eastward-flowing Threemile Cr and Eightmile Cr. To the south, the terrain becomes increasingly complex as Canyon Cr and its tributaries, such as Pole Cr, cut through the basin.

Modern access is facilitated by a network of rural routes like National Canyon Rd and Buckskin Canyon Rd, which reach into the higher elevations. This 2015 survey provides a precise look at the township and range boundaries for t46n r38e, t46n r39e, t45n r38e, and t45n r39e, reflecting the cadastral structure of the Great Basin. The presence of Flat Creek Rd in the southwest corner marks the entry point to the high desert valley floor.
