2012 Map of Leppy Peak NW
USGS Topo · Published 2012About this map
Hastings Trl cuts across this high-desert landscape in Elko County, marking a modern tracing of the historical emigrant route. The terrain is defined by the ephemeral drainage of Pilot Cr, which flows through the eastern portion of the quadrangle. Human presence is sparse, centered on the Cummings Ranch and a small collection of secondary roads such as Pilot Rd. This 2012 survey illustrates the arid character of the Great Basin, where water sources like Small Spring were historically vital for survival. The alignment of the trails and intermittent streams reveals a landscape where travel routes were dictated by topography and the location of reliable water.
