About this map

Maggie Creek and Little Jack Creek define the drainage patterns of this high desert terrain at the border of Elko and Eureka counties. The landscape is marked by the infrastructure of ranching and early resource exploration in the late 1960s, featuring the Coyote Ranch and various water sources critical for survival in the Great Basin. Named springs like Chicken Springs and the Rebholtz Well No 1 indicate the importance of water management for local operations.
