2021 Map of Lost Creek Pass

USGS Topo · Published 2021

About this map

Lost Creek Pass stands as the central landmark of this high-desert terrain in Washoe County, where the landscape is defined by its seasonal drainage patterns and springs. The map reveals a remote network of canyons, including Summit Spring Canyon and Sheep Spring Canyon, which provide critical water sources in an otherwise arid environment. Evidence of land management and historical passage is found along Lost Creek Rd, which skirts the Lost Creek Troughs and the topographic bottleneck of Devils Gate. The presence of named water features like Cherry Springs and No Savvy Cr suggests the vital importance of reliable water to ranchers and travelers navigating these Great Basin basins and ranges. The detailed survey captures the intersection of several townships, highlighting the sectioned grid that remains the foundation of land ownership in the Nevada wilderness.
