2015 Map of Evans Canyon

About this map

Toiyabe National Forest dominates this high-altitude landscape where the California and Nevada state lines meet. The terrain is defined by a series of prominent peaks and canyons, including Haskell Peak, Little Haskell Peak, and Burma Summit, which mark the northern extent of the Bald Mountain Range. In the eastern section, the small settlement of Peavine sits near the headwaters of Long Valley Cr, while Upper Long Valley transitions into the steep drainages of Evans Canyon and Balls Canyon. A network of forest service and local roads like Balls Canyon Rd and Dog Valley Rd provides access to these watersheds. The map provides clear evidence of the complex jurisdictional boundaries where Lassen, Sierra, and Washoe counties converge among the drainages of Purdy Cr.
