2021 Map of Gaskell

About this map

Desert Valley dominates the northern expanse of this region in Humboldt County, where the topography transitions from the low-lying basin floor to the rising slopes in the southeast. The landscape is defined by the rigid grid of the Public Land Survey System, with township and range lines marking the desert floor. Running nearly east-west across the central portion of the map, Jungo Rd serves as the primary corridor for movement through this arid territory. The sparse labels indicate a focused land-use pattern typical of the high desert, where transport routes follow the path of least resistance across the basin while avoiding the more complex terrain found at the higher elevations to the south.
