About this map

The desert landscape of the Lahontan Valley is defined by a complex network of man-made waterways and military installations. The eastern edge of Fallon and the nearby Fallon Station serve as anchors for this region, where the vast Fallon Naval Air Station occupies a significant portion of the central terrain. This landscape is a patchwork of irrigation and drainage infrastructure, with labels like the S Line Canal, A Line Canal, and Lower Diagonal Drain illustrating the concerted effort to manage water in this arid environment. Natural and engineered features coexist, from the heights of Rattlesnake Hill and Eetz Mtn to the water-catchments of S Line Reservoir and Harmon Reservoir. Historical routes and wetlands, such as New River Slough and Pierson Slough, wind through the valley, highlighting the intersection of aviation history, desert reclamation, and Great Basin geography.
