About this map

Coleman Rim defines the northern edge of this high-desert landscape where the border of Oregon and Nevada meets the boundary between Lake and Washoe counties. This 2018 survey documents a remote corridor of the Great Basin, characterized by expansive topographic depressions and prominent geological formations. The central terrain is dominated by the broad basins of Antelope Flat and Macy Flat, providing a detailed look at the drainage patterns and seasonal catchments that define survival in this arid region.

Surface transportation is focused on the singular route of C R 34, which threads through the topography to connect the northern flats with Long Valley and the northern reaches of the Painted Point Range. The map serves as a contemporary record of the land use and public land survey system divisions in a corner of the West where geography remains largely dictated by the stark relationship between the high rims and the deep canyons like Coleman Canyon.
