2021 Map of Carson Sink SW
USGS Topo · Published 2021About this map
The Carson Sink dominates this interior basin in Churchill County, representing a modern look at one of the lowest points in the Great Basin. This landscape is defined by its extreme flatness and hydrological patterns, where the remnants of ancient Lake Lahontan settle into expansive alkaline flats. In the northwestern corner of the sheet, the Mopung Hills provide the only significant relief, their contour lines marking a sharp contrast to the surrounding desert floor.
