About this map

O'Neil Basin defines the central geography of this high-desert Elko County landscape, where the seasonal drainage of Sun Creek cuts a winding path toward the southeast. Surveyed in the late 1960s, the map reveals a remote ranching and grazing territory anchored by the Humboldt National Forest boundary along its western edge. The land is marked by a network of ephemeral water sources critical for livestock and wildlife, including Antelope Spring, Buffalo Spring, and the clustered Springs near the basin floor.
