2021 Map of Black Rock Point East

USGS Topo · Published 2021

About this map

The vast, arid floor of the Black Rock Desert dominates the southern half of this Nevada landscape, transitioning into the rising elevation of the Black Rock Range to the north. This 2021 survey reveals a stark basin environment defined by its hydrology and the sheer scale of the desert playa. The northern reaches of the quadrangle are anchored by the prominence of Rocky Peak, where the terrain becomes significantly more complex. Straddling the boundary between Humboldt Co and Pershing Co, the area is primarily defined by its topographic extremes rather than human settlement, serving as a primary reference for the intricate land divisions of the Public Land Survey System. The map documents the persistent natural features of the Great Basin, where the desert floor meets the base of the mountains without the intervention of modern development.
