2018 Map of Horse Corral Pass

About this map

The high-desert topography of Lincoln County defines this area where the Fortification Range meets the Wilson Creek Range. This 2018 survey documents a landscape of dramatic elevation changes and sparse water sources, centered on the prominent heights of Mt Patterson and Tub Peak. The terrain is characterized by deep drainages like Smiley Canyon and essential mountain crossings such as Horse Corral Pass, which provide the primary routes through the north-central portion of the quadrangle. In an environment where water is a critical resource, the map records the locations of Wilson Cr and the Garrison Seep, key landmarks for those navigating or managing this high-altitude range country. The absence of developed settlements highlights the remote character of this part of Nevada, which is primarily divided by the township and range boundaries of t7n r67e and t7n r68e.
