2018 Map of Bellehelen

About this map

Stone Cabin Valley and the Kawich Range dominate this high-desert landscape in central Nevada, where water sources dictated the movement of early explorers and prospectors. Numerous vital water points are identified across the arid terrain, including Clifford Spring in the north and the cluster of Jackson Falls and Jackson Falls Spring to the south. These features highlight the critical nature of hydrology in a region defined by stark elevations, such as the prominent Castle Rock and the high point at Squawtip. To the southeast, the topography descends toward Reveille Valley, while the seasonal basins of Bellehelen Lake Number One and Bellehelen Lake Number Two collect runoff in the valley floor. The map also records numerous drainages like Cow Canyon and Neversweat Canyon, which channel water from the mountain heights during rare storms.
