2021 Map of Ventosa

About this map

Ventosa stands as a primary focal point in this high-desert landscape of Elko County, where the transition between Clover Valley and Independence Valley is defined by complex drainage and high elevations. The southern portion of the map is dominated by the steep ascent of Spruce Mtn Ridge, culminating at Spruce Point, a significant topographical landmark that overlooks the surrounding basins. This area illustrates the classic Great Basin hydrology, where seasonal water sources like Steele Cr and Point Spring feed into terminal features such as The Slough. The presence of the Bapt Reservoir suggests the importance of water management for ranching or local industry in this arid corridor. A major railroad line cuts through the northern section near Black Ridge, indicating the historical and modern importance of this route for transcontinental freight movement through Nevada's interior.
