Bradys Hot Springs and the surrounding basin of the Fortymile Desert define this portion of Churchill County. This arid landscape is characterized by a stark contrast between the steep elevations of Fireball Ridge and Tolbert Canyon to the northwest and the expansive lowlands of Hot Springs Flat. The modern transportation corridor is represented by Frontage Rd, which runs parallel to the interstate through the desert floor. The area's geothermal significance is clear, as the map records the locations of springs that have historically drawn travelers through this notoriously difficult stretch of the Great Basin. This edition provides a precise view of the topography and township boundaries as they were maintained in the early 21st century.
