2021 Map of Calcutta Lake

About this map

Calcutta Lake and Middle Lake sit within a high-desert basin in Washoe County, where seasonal waters and scattered springs define the land's utility. The terrain is marked by the Painted Point Range to the north and east, with prominent elevations such as Mosquito Mountain and Yellow Peak overlooking the basin. This interior drainage system, including Horse Lake and Cow Lake, creates a specialized environment where water sources like Antelope Spring and Sage Hen Springs were vital for early range management and wildlife. The presence of Buck Pasture and several family-named or descriptive springs, such as Beebe Spring and Biebe Spring, indicates a landscape historically utilized for livestock grazing. Transport is limited to primitive routes like C R 34, which skirts the eastern edge of Long Valley.
