About this map

Air Sailing Gliderport and several private airstrips like Palomino Airport and Rolling Thunder Airport define the high-desert aviation character of this Nevada landscape. Situated north of the Reno-Sparks metropolitan area, the terrain is shaped by the transition between the Warm Springs Valley and Hungry Valley. Prominent geographic markers include Kimberly Hill and Twentyone Mile Hill, which rise above the desert floor alongside drainages like Mullen Cr and Cottonwood Cr. Local naming traditions are evident in the colorful road and landmark labels, such as Rebel Cause Rd, Jackrabbit Rd, and the Bacon Rind House near Bacon Rind Flat. The map documents a sparsely populated region where ranching legacies and private aviation runways meet the foothills of the Curnow Range.
