2011 Map of Black Warrior Peak

About this map

Black Warrior Peak dominates this high-desert portion of Washoe County, a landscape defined by seasonal drainages and vital water sources in an arid environment. At the time of this 2011 survey, the terrain is characterized by broad expanses like North Valley and the wandering course of Sage Hen Wash. For researchers and historians, the map documents critical water points such as Coyote Spring and Black Warrior Spring, which have historically served as essential landmarks for movement through these Nevada uplands. Elevations range from the high point of Nache Peak in the north to the rugged slopes of the central mountains, showing a region where natural topography dictates the few established access roads and paths.
