2012 Map of Lower Pahranagat Lake NW

About this map

Medsger Pass provides a vital point of navigation through the mountainous terrain of Lincoln County in this 2012 survey. The landscape is defined by its arid drainage patterns and the historic presence of paths like Old Corn Rd, which cuts through the central portion of the quadrangle. For those researching the hydrology of the Great Basin, the presence of Lower Lake Spring in the eastern hills indicates one of the few named water sources in this high-elevation desert environment. This topographic study, produced by the U.S. Geological Survey, records the land as it was documented in 2010 and 2011, capturing a rugged area where infrastructure is limited to primitive roads and natural landmarks.
