2018 Map of Hog Spring

About this map

Hog Spring and the drainage of Buffalo Slough define this section of the Smoke Creek Desert, where the Great Basin landscape is marked by intermittent water sources and ephemeral basins. The geography here is primarily shaped by the vast desert flats and the sparse infrastructure of northwestern Nevada, with the map recording the exact township and range boundaries such as t32n r20e and t31n r21e. Human presence is concentrated along a few key corridors, notably Surprise Valley Rd and Buffalo Meadows Rd, which provide access through the open terrain. Near the southern edge, the small location of Reynard stands as a distinct point of interest within this otherwise wide-open expanse, offering a precise look at the land survey system and hydrography of the region in the early 21st century.
