2021 Map of King Lear Peak NW

USGS Topo · Published 2021

About this map

The Black Rock Desert landscape is defined by its expansive, flat alkaline plains where the Quinn River meanders in a series of branching channels before dissipating into the arid basin. This 2021 survey illustrates the complex hydrology of the region, featuring the seasonal Jackson Cr Slough as it threads through the low-lying terrain. The map captures a high degree of isolation, with human infrastructure represented primarily by the lone corridor of Jackson Creek Ranch Rd. This route serves as the primary land link across the basin's edge, connecting the vast salt flats to the rising elevations of the surrounding mountains. The shifting nature of the desert's water systems is visible in the detailed topographic contours, which show subtle depressions where water collects during infrequent runoff events.
