2014 Map of Douglas

About this map

Humboldt National Forest and the White River Range define the high-desert character of this 2014 survey. Located along the border of White Pine and Nye counties, the landscape transitions from the jagged peaks of the range down into the open expanse of the White River Valley. The small settlement of Douglas sits in the northeastern quadrant of the map, situated near the foothills. Throughout this arid terrain, rare water sources like Granite Spring and The Cove suggest the historical importance of specific locations for ranching and travel in this part of Nevada. The topography is dominated by dramatic elevation changes, notably at Douglas Point, illustrating the difficult physical geography that has long dictated movement through these mountain passes and valley floors.
