2021 Map of Badger Mountain NW

About this map

Bitner Table and the high peaks of the Badger Mountains dominate this high-desert landscape in northern Washoe County. This modern topographical study captures the remote character of the Great Basin, where water sources like Post Camp Spring and North Spring are critical landmarks for both historic navigation and contemporary land management. The drainage patterns are defined by the seasonal flow of Badger Cr and Wall Canyon Cr, cutting through the volcanic terrain. Connectivity through this corner of Nevada is maintained by Co Rte 8a, which winds through the northwestern corner of the quadrangle. For researchers, the map provides precise section lines and public land survey data, including boundaries for t44n r23e and t43n r22e, reflecting the ongoing organization of these high-altitude plateaus.
