2018 Map of Kyle Hot Springs SW

About this map

Buena Vista Valley dominates the western half of this Pershing County landscape, where the wide, flat floor of the basin gives way to an intricate network of wetlands and intermittent water patterns. The eastern edge of the quadrangle is defined by the rising elevations of the Humboldt Range, cut through by the prominent Woody Canyon. This 2018 survey by the U.S. Geological Survey captures the modern layout of the Kyle Hot Springs Rd as it skirts the northeast corner, providing a vital transport link through the high desert. The intersection of the Fas 615 corridor with the varied terrain of the valley floor illustrates the relationship between the area's geological drainage and its established road network.
