1985 Map of Coal Valley Reservoir

USGS Topo · Published 1986

About this map

The Golden Gate Range defines the western edge of this arid Nevada landscape, which transitions into the wide expanse of Coal Valley. Grounded in data from a 1981 field check, this map reveals a high-desert environment where water management is paramount, centered on the Coal Valley Reservoir and Sheep Reservoir No 2. These isolated water features, along with a noted Depression to the south, highlight the unique hydrological challenges of Lincoln County. The mapping also delineates a critical geographic marker, the Base Line, and a network of 4wd routes that suggest a landscape primarily utilized for range management and remote access rather than permanent settlement. Large stretches of sand underscore the seasonal and shifting nature of the local terrain.
