2015 Map of The Knolls
USGS Topo · Published 2015About this map
The Knolls rise above the high desert landscape of northeastern Nevada, marking a distinct terrain feature in a region defined by its vital water sources. This 2015 U.S. Geological Survey representation of the Elko and Humboldt County border highlights the essential nature of local hydrology, including Garnet Spring and the drainage of Jake Cr. The presence of the Jake Creek Rnch and the winding path of Sheep Creek Field Rd reflect the enduring ranching economy and land management practices that characterize this portion of the Great Basin. Small seasonal flows like Kelly Cr and Spring Br carve through the basins, illustrating the complex watershed that supports life and industry in this arid environment.
