2012 Map of South Schell Peak

About this map

South Schell Peak and Taft Peak define the high ridgelines of this White Pine County landscape, where deep drainage systems like Taft Canyon and Kraft Canyon have carved out a complex topography. This 2012 survey illustrates a wilderness defined by water distribution, with numerous named streams including N Fork Cleve Cr and Vipont Cr feeding into larger systems. Remote roads such as Fera Ninetysix and Fera One Hundred Six navigate the terrain, providing access to essential water sources like North Cleve Spring and Pete Spring. The map documents a period of modern land management within the Schell Creek Range, highlighting the intersection of named summits like Black Mountain with a network of seasonal creeks like Stephens Cr and S Taft Cr. It is a detailed record of the high-altitude water sources and drainage patterns critical to this arid Nevada region.
