2018 Map of Long Canyon

About this map

The Antelope Range dominates this portion of the Great Basin, where the high desert terrain transitions into the wide expanse of Desert Valley. This 2018 survey documents a landscape defined by significant elevation changes and deep natural drainages, most notably Long Canyon and Box Canyon. A critical water source for the area is identified at Box Canyon Spring Number Two, located within the western reaches of the mountains. Human activity is sparse, marked primarily by the inclusion of Ely Rd which cuts through the northeastern corner of the sheet. The map also delineates the precise boundary between Humboldt Co and Pershing Co, providing a clear record of the jurisdictional division across this remote stretch of Nevada.
