2014 Map of Spruce Mountain NW

About this map

Clover Valley defines the topography of this corner of Elko County, where the high desert landscape is drained by seasonal watercourses and local ranching infrastructure. The map documents the northern reaches of the valley, shaped by the flow of Spring Cr and the multi-channeled Three Spring Brook. A notable man-made feature is the Ravine Reservoir, positioned near the western edge of the valley floor to manage water resources in this arid environment. Transportation through the area is anchored by the Old Sprucemont Rd, a historic thoroughfare that cuts across the township lines of t32n r62e and t33n r62e. This 2014 survey serves as a modern record of the drainage patterns and access routes that have supported land use in the northeastern Great Basin for generations.
