1987 Map of Boundary Peak

About this map

Boundary Peak 13140, the highest point in Nevada, dominates this high-altitude landscape along the border of Esmeralda and Mono Counties. The terrain represents a significant crest of the White Mountains, where the state line between Nevada and California bisects massive summits like Montgomery Peak 13441 and reaches toward Mount Dubois 13559. This is a landscape of extreme verticality, featuring the sheer drop of The Jumpoff and the sprawling high-elevation expanse of Pellisier Flats. Within the Inyo National Forest, the map traces the drainages of Chiatovich Creek and Morris Creek, highlighting a remote wilderness environment. Scattered evidence of human activity is minimal, appearing as a lone Prospect in the northeast and a primitive Trail through Trail Canyon Saddle, reflecting the isolation of this portion of the Great Basin.
