2021 Map of Farrington Canyon

About this map

Toiyabe National Forest encompasses the high-elevation drainage systems of the Shoshone Mountains in this 2021 study. The landscape is defined by its seasonal hydrology and a network of remote trailheads that provide access to the deep interior of the Great Basin. Named canyons like Weeks Canyon and Farrington Canyon carve through the terrain, connecting high meadows to the valley floors below. The presence of Little Meadows and Barney Meadows indicates essential grazing and watering sites in an otherwise arid environment, supported by reliable water sources such as Rat Trap Spring and Cottonwood Basin Spring.
