About this map

Maggie Creek Rd follows the winding path of Maggie Cr through this high-altitude basin on the boundary of Eureka and Elko counties. The drainage network is dense with seasonal and perennial flows, including Fish Cr, Jack Cr, and Little Jack Cr, which carve through the terrain of Townships 35 and 36 North. Small water sources like Chicken Springs and Coyote Cr dot the landscape, suggesting the historical importance of reliable water for ranching or travel in this arid environment. The map shows a region defined by its hydrology and administrative lines, where the convergence of Cottonwood Cr and other tributaries into the main Maggie Creek valley creates a distinct natural corridor through the northern Nevada desert.
