About this map

Buffalo Valley dominates this high-desert basin, where the landscape transitions between open valley floors and the rising slopes of the surrounding ranges. The area is defined by its administrative and natural boundaries, most notably the north-south line separating Pershing Co and Lander Co. Water is a scarce and vital element in this arid environment, represented by the ephemeral course of Willow Cr in the southeastern corner. This modern survey illustrates a quiet corner of the Great Basin, where the primary infrastructure consists of solitary routes like Co Rd 121 cutting through the sagebrush flats. The grid of the Public Land Survey System, including townships t30n r41e and t29n r42e, provides the only formal structure to this largely open expanse.
