2018 Map of Beatty

About this map

Rhyolite stands as a prominent focal point in this high-desert landscape, situated between the slopes of Sutherland Mtn and Ladd Mtn. The terrain is defined by dramatic elevation changes, with the Bullfrog Hills and Sawtooth Mtn rising above the floor of the Mojave Desert. This 2018 survey reveals a complex hydrological network of springs essential to life in the arid Great Basin, including Upper Indian Spring, Middle Indian Spring, and Lower Indian Springs. In the eastern portion of the map, the Amargosa River flows through the Oasis Valley, while the residential grid of Beatty is clearly delineated with streets like Main St and Montgomery St. The presence of the Desert Hill Cem and numerous named peaks such as Busch Peak and Velvet Peak provides significant geographic context for local researchers and hikers.
