2015 Map of Doyle

About this map

The settlement of Doyle sits at the base of the Fort Sage Mountains in this high-desert landscape near the California-Nevada border. This area is characterized by dramatic elevation changes where the southern tip of the Honey Lake Valley meets the rising slopes of Turtle Mtn. The hydrology of the region is defined by ephemeral water sources and drainage systems such as Long Valley Cr, Willow Ranch Cr, and several remote springs including Steffens Spring, Indian Spring, and Jesus Spring. Transportation in the valley is marked by a network of local roads such as Laver Crossing Rd and Calneva Rd, alongside more specialized routes like the Old Doyle Durp Rd. The survey captures the transition from the relatively flat valley floor into the steep, complex terrain of the Fort Sage range, illustrating the placement of homesteads and modern lanes against the backdrop of this arid environment.
