2021 Map of Emigrant Peak

USGS Topo · Published 2021

About this map

Emigrant Peak dominates the high desert landscape of central Nevada, standing as a prominent landmark above the eastern transition into Smith Creek Valley. This modern topographical study reveals a terrain defined by deep erosional cuts and seasonal water sources, most notably at Ryan Canyon Spring within the winding Ryan Canyon. To the north and west, the map details several significant drainage systems, including Sand Canyon, Acree Canyon, and Gandolfo Canyon, which channel toward the valley floor. The western reaches are characterized by the more level expanse of the valley, where the ephemeral Porter Cr and Smith Creek are traced. The absence of built settlements emphasizes the remote nature of this part of Lander County, where the topography remains the primary guide for navigation and land use.
