Wild Horse Re Nr Gold Creek
The Wild Horse Range in Gold Creek, Nevada is a popular tourist attraction that is home to a herd of wild horses. This area is located in the northeastern part of the state and covers approximately 40,000 acres. The region is characterized by high desert terrain and is drained by several small streams that feed into Gold Creek. The area receives its water from snowpack and surface flow, which provide irrigation for agricultural activities.

About Wild Horse Re Nr Gold Creek
Where does the data for Wild Horse Re Nr Gold Creek come from?
Daily storage, pool elevation, and release rates are sourced from USGS, USBR, and USACE monitoring stations. Weather forecast comes from NOAA / yr.no -- the same feed Snoflo's iOS app uses.
How often is the report updated?
Storage observations are updated daily by the operating agency. The 15-day weather forecast refreshes throughout the day. Snoflo caches and renders the most recent observation -- check the "as of" timestamp on the storage card.
What does the Hazard hazard rating mean?
The Corps of Engineers' hazard potential classification grades probable consequences if the dam fails: High = probable loss of human life; Significant = no probable loss of human life but possible economic loss / environmental damage; Low = no probable loss of human life, only minor economic / environmental losses. See the Dam Data Reference card above for the full definitions.
What's "% of normal"?
The current storage value compared to the historical average storage on this calendar day. 100% = right on average; values above 100% mean above-normal storage (wet year); values below mean below-normal (dry year or drought).
Can I get alerts when storage crosses a threshold?
Yes -- alerts are managed in the Snoflo iOS app. Favorite this reservoir, set a threshold, and you'll get a push the moment conditions cross.
