2012 Map of Stargo Creek

About this map

Red Mountains dominate the western landscape of this Nye County high-desert terrain, where drainage patterns define the geography. The area is marked by seasonal and perennial waterways including Stargo Creek, Savory Creek, and East Dobbin Creek. A notable geological curiosity, the Miniature GrandCanyon, is located in the southwestern sector, suggesting a local landscape of sharp erosion and unique formations. This 2012 survey illustrates the network of backcountry routes and forest service roads, such as Natl Forest Develop Road 139 Rd and 516a, that provide access to remote points like Stargo Spring. The map documents a sparsely populated region of Nevada where land management and natural water sources like Little Savory Creek and Sevenmile Wash dictate the movement through the basin and range environment.
