2018 Map of Klondike

About this map

Montezuma Valley dominates this high-desert landscape in Esmeralda County, providing a clear look at the arid basin-and-range topography during the late 2010s. The northern portion of the map is defined by the high ground of Hasbrouck Peak, while the southern reaches descend toward the white expanse of Alkali Lake. Infrastructure in this sparsely populated region is limited to linear paths like Paymaster Canyon Rd and Powerline Rd, which cut through the broad drainage of the Big Wash. This survey reflects the enduring character of the Nevada desert, where drainage patterns and localized peaks remain the primary markers for navigation and land management.
