2021 Map of The Knolls

About this map

The Knolls rise from the high desert floor in this remote corner of Humboldt County, defining a landscape shaped by seasonal watercourses and subterranean springs. The hydrologic patterns of the region are clearly visible, with Kelly Cr and Jake Creek cutting through the arid terrain. Notable for its reliable water sources in an otherwise dry environment, the area is anchored by Garnet Spring and the drainage of Spring Br. The map reveals a sparsely settled territory where land use is dictated by the availability of water, showing the intersection of local roads and the underlying township and range grid systems that organize this vast northern Nevada expanse.
