2021 Map of Diamond Peak

About this map

The Diamond Mountains dominate this high-desert landscape in central Nevada, forming a dramatic north-south spine along the border of Eureka Co and White Pine Co. The terrain is deeply incised by numerous drainages, such as Hildebrand Canyon, Sadler Canyon, and Mining Canyon, where the elevation shifts between the high ridges and the broad expanse of Newark Valley to the east. The presence of several water sources in this arid environment, including Cottonwood Spring, Poison Spring, and Stinson Spring, highlights the critical natural features that likely dictated early routes and range use in the area.
