2021 Map of Congress Canyon

USGS Topo · Published 2021

About this map

The Humboldt Range dominates this landscape in Pershing County, Nevada, defined by a complex network of steep drainage canyons and high-elevation basins. This survey illustrates the intricate topography of the region, where numerous forks and gulches like Peru Canyon and Peru Gulch converge. The naming of canyons such as Congress Canyon and Buena Vista Canyon suggests a history of prospectors and surveyors who moved through these corridors. Movement across the terrain is limited to primitive routes like Rocky Canyon Rd, which skirts the base of the ridges. Significant landmarks such as Fourth of July Flat provide rare level ground amidst the vertical relief of Wright Canyon and Rocky Canyon. Water resources are sparse, represented by intermittent flows in Coyote Cr and Indian Cr at the northern and southern edges of the range.
