2012 Map of Hunter Point

About this map

Hunter Point dominates this high-desert landscape in White Pine County, rising above the expansive Hunter Flat. This 2012 USGS survey illustrates the essential infrastructure required for land management and ranching in a dry environment, where the presence of the Hunter Tank suggests a critical water resource for livestock or wildlife. The map captures a transition in modern land use, showing the intersection of local transportation via Co Rd 19 with the natural topography. The sparse distribution of named features highlights the solitude of this Great Basin terrain, emphasizing the importance of specific landmarks and water sources in an otherwise open stretch of Nevada.
