2014 Map of Derby Dam

About this map

The Truckee River carves a critical path through the high desert of the Washoe Co Storey Co border, serving as the primary geographic corridor for both natural and man-made infrastructure. This 2014 survey captures the area as the USA Pky corridor began to fundamentally reshape the landscape, connecting the traditional river-valley settlements of Clark and Thisby with new industrial and logistical developments south of the river. While the river remains the anchor, the map reveals a complex grid of modern road names like Milan Dr and Portofino Dr that speak to planned growth in the foothills. To the south, the deep drainage of Post Canyon highlights the transition into more isolated terrain, contrasting with the active transport network following the river and the path of Canal Rd.
