High Rock Lake sits at the center of this 2015 survey, straddling the high desert boundary of Washoe and Humboldt counties. The landscape is defined by a series of dramatic geographic incisions, including High Rock Canyon and Little High Rock Canyon, which funnel seasonal drainage through the Division Range. The intricate network of intermittent water sources, such as Powers Spring and Taxaque Spring, suggests the critical importance of water management in this arid environment, further evidenced by the Franco Reservoir to the northeast.
