2012 Map of Hiko NE

About this map

The White River weaves through this corner of Lincoln County, defining the drainage patterns of an arid landscape in the early twenty-first century. The terrain is characterized by the expansive Spur of Pahrock Mountains, where numerous seasonal washes and alluvial fans descend toward the valley floor. Transportation is limited to a few arterial routes, including the junction of State Route 38 and Route 318 in the northwest corner, which provide the primary access through this sparsely developed region of Nevada. The map illustrates a high-desert environment where water and elevation dictate the path of travel and the few signs of human infrastructure.
