About this map

Atlanta sits at the heart of this high-desert landscape in Lincoln County, nestled between the Wilson Creek Range and the high summits of Atlanta Peak and Atlanta Summit. This 2018 survey reveals a terrain defined by its water sources, where numerous named springs like Silver Park Springs, Moonshine Spring, and Lizard Spring punctuate the arid environment. The primary artery, Atlanta Rd, provides access through the high country, skirting the base of Mineral Hill and leading south toward the expansive Empy Meadows.

The map details a region of significant elevation changes, from the Limestone Hills in the northeast to the prominent plateau of Table Mtn in the south. The drainage patterns of Winz Cr and the forks of Rosencrans Cr illustrate the complex topography that surrounds the settlement. This record of the modern Nevada interior is essential for understanding the contemporary geography of these remote mountain peaks and their historic water points.
