2011 Map of Ione NW

About this map

Ellsworth Canyon cuts through this high desert landscape on the border of Nevada and Nye counties, where the drainage patterns of the Great Basin dictate the path of travel. This 2011 survey illustrates a network of forest and secondary roads, including NFD 107 Trl and route 107, that provide access to the remote terrain. The land is defined by seasonal watercourses like Sand Wash and Ione Wash, which reveal the hydrologic character of the region. Researchers interested in the public lands of the central Nevada desert will find this sheet useful for tracing the primitive road system that connects these remote canyons and washes.
