2014 Map of Majors Place

About this map

The intersection of major regional routes at Majors Place defines this White Pine County landscape, where the high terrain of the Schell Creek Range meets the broad expanse of Spring Valley. Much of the western portion of the map is dominated by the Humboldt National Forest, characterized by steep elevation changes and drainage systems like Cooper Canyon. The map reveals a network of mountain access via the Natl Forest Develop Road 436 Rd and NFD 578 Rd, which navigate the foothills. Water sources are scarce in this arid environment, making features like Allen Spring significant landmarks for those traversing the range. To the east, the terrain levels out significantly toward Rattlesnake Knoll, illustrating the dramatic basin-and-range topography typical of eastern Nevada.
