2014 Map of Ellsworth

About this map

Paradise Range terrain dominates this Nevada landscape, where high peaks and deep canyons define the eastern boundary of the Lodi Valley. Within the Toiyabe National Forest, the topography transitions from the high elevations of Fairview Peak and Sherman Peak down into a complex network of drainages including Germany Canyon and Ellsworth Canyon. The presence of numerous isolated water sources like Lodi Tank, Camel Spring, and Marble Falls Canyon suggests the critical importance of localized hydrology for livestock and wildlife in this arid environment. Transportation is limited to a few corridors such as NV-844 and NF-075, which navigate the rugged gaps like Camel Pass. This survey illustrates the enduring wilderness character of the region, where land management boundaries intersect with the natural flow of Antelope Wash and the distinct profiles of the Lodi Hills.
