2021 Map of Bellehelen

About this map

Kawich Range dominates the central portion of this Nye County landscape, rising between the expansive Stone Cabin Valley to the west and Reveille Valley to the east. The rugged topography is deeply incised by drainages such as Bellehelen Canyon, Mikes Canyon, and Craig Canyon. Hydrological features are primarily limited to isolated springs and falls, including Radium Spring, Clifford Spring, and the seasonal Jackson Falls. Notable high points like Castle Rock and Squawtip provide distinct landmarks for orienteering in this high-desert environment. To the south, the presence of Bellehelen Lake Number One and Bellehelen Lake Number Two suggests ephemeral water collection points in an otherwise arid basin. The map reflects a modern topographical record of a remote region where the names often echo early mining or ranching history.
