Old Emigrant Trl cuts through the desert floor of this Pershing County landscape, marking a historical corridor of westward travel through the Great Basin. The terrain is dominated by the rising slopes of the Buena Vista Hills in the southeast, where elevations climb from the surrounding flats. To the northeast, the distinct form of Chocolate Butte stands as a local landmark near the Coal Canyon-Stillwater Rd. This 2021 survey also captures the administrative divide of the Pershing Co Churchill Co boundary. The map provides a detailed view of the sectional divisions, including t26n r33e, t26n r34e, t25n r33e, and t25n r34e, illustrating how modern land management overlays the historical paths of the early emigrants.
