2021 Map of Stony Point

About this map

The Humboldt River corridor dominates this central Nevada landscape, where the waterway carves through the southern edge of the Sheep Creek Range. This 2021 edition documents a transition from the elevated terrain of Shoshone Mesa to the wide expanse of Boulder Valley. Historical settlement footprints at Rennox and Jenkins sit near the river’s north bank, positioned along the corridor where transportation and water resources historically intersected. The presence of Hot Springs near Stony Point indicates the geothermal activity characteristic of the Great Basin. Agricultural and irrigation patterns are evident through features like the T S Ditch, which draws from the river to support Stony Point Meadow. The map also captures the varied drainage of the upland range, including Sheep Cr and Battle Cr, as they descend toward the basin floor.
