2014 Map of Kingston

About this map

Kingston serves as a remote gateway to the eastern slopes of the Toiyabe Range, where high-desert canyons meet the western edge of the Big Smoky Valley. This 2014 survey captures the precise layout of the settlement, from the residential streets like Toyabe Rd and Austin Ave to the Kingston Airport and the Kingston Cemetery. The landscape is dominated by steep topographical transitions as Kingston Canyon and Broad Canyon descend from the Toiyabe National Forest into the basin. The map documents a complex network of seasonal drainages, including Shoshone Cr and Santa Fe Cr, which have historically dictated the placement of early ranching and travel routes through the Great Basin. Historical transit is reflected in the path of the Fremont Trl and Old Hay Rd, providing a detailed look at the interface between the Lander and Nye County lines.
