2021 Map of Flowery Lake

About this map

Pequop Mountains terrain dominates this high-altitude section of Elko County, where the desert basins of Independence Valley and Goshute Valley are separated by steep ridgelines. The small settlement of Hogan sits at the northern edge, serving as a rare point of habitation in this arid landscape. Natural corridors through the range are marked by Flower Pass and Flowery Lake Pass, which historically provided essential transit routes between the valleys. Drainage patterns are defined by features like Ninemile Canyon and the seasonally sensitive Flowery Lake. The map illustrates a modern infrastructure network consisting primarily of unpaved access ways such as RR Maintenance Rd, Shafter Rd, and Decoy Rd, supporting the maintenance of the corridor between the prominent heights of Twin Peaks and the valley floors.
