About this map

Black Canyon Range and the Chief Range dominate this high-altitude corner of Lincoln County, where the topography is defined by sharp elevation shifts and narrow drainages. The landscape is oriented around Bennett Pass, a central navigation point between these mountain blocks. Water sources are scarce but critical, marked by Bennett Springs and the drainage of Bennett Springs Wash in the southeastern quadrant.

Remote roads like Bennett Springs Rd and RD 83 trace the easier grades through the terrain, connecting natural landmarks such as Oak Flat and Dead Deer Canyon. The mapping reflects a rugged interior where passage is dictated by geological breaks like Klondike Gap. This 2018 survey detail provides an exact look at the drainage patterns and ridgelines that have shaped travel and land use in this part of Nevada for generations.
