2018 Map of Ione NW

About this map

Ellsworth Cemetary stands as a solitary historical marker near the mouth of Ellsworth Canyon, signifying the late-period remnants of human activity in this corner of the Paradise Range. The 2018 data illustrates a landscape of extreme topographic relief, where the steep slopes of the Toiyabe National Forest descend sharply into the broad, alluvial expanse of the Ione Valley. This geographic transition is defined by seasonal drainage patterns, with Idlewild Creek, Sand Wash, and the larger Ione Wash cutting through the arid terrain. The map's detail is primarily focused on the natural survey lines and physical barriers of the high desert, including Brunton Pass, which serves as a critical point of navigation through the rugged western ridges.
