2014 Map of White Flats

About this map

The South Fork Humboldt River carves through this Elko County landscape, feeding into the S Fork Reservoir at the base of the Elko Hills. This 2014 survey captures a period of modern rural development in the White Flats and South Fork Valley areas, where a grid of residential streets like Sherman Ave and Stillwell Ave meet the open range. The geography is defined by its transition from high hills to alluvial flats, with Dixie Cr and Tenmile Cr draining toward the reservoir. Local history is etched into the road names, including the Hamilton Stage Rd and Lucky Nugget Rd, which trace the path of earlier transit and ranching across Dixie Flats. The map highlights the intersection of public recreation at the reservoir and the ongoing residential expansion north of the Dixie Hills.
