2015 Map of Brewer Canyon

About this map

Toiyabe National Forest dominates this section of the Shoshone Range, where the high-altitude landscape is carved by an extensive network of drainage systems. The small settlement at Washington sits at the foot of Leon Canyon near the junction of several mountain trails, serving as a rare point of human habitation in this steep terrain. The geography is defined by deep incisions like Brewer Canyon, Kingston Canyon, and Cottonwood Canyon, which channel seasonal runoff into creeks such as Kingston Cr and Washington Cr. At the northern edge, Bunker Hill stands as a prominent high point overlooking Groves Lake. This 2015 survey illustrates the complex jurisdictional boundaries of the Great Basin, following the line between Lander Co and Nye Co as it traverses the rugged interior of the national forest.
