2014 Map of Manhattan Mountain NE

About this map

Carico Lake Valley dominates the northeastern portion of this Nevada landscape, where the high-altitude terrain is defined by its drainage systems and sparse water sources. The Reese River cuts through the southwestern corner of the sheet, serving as a primary hydrological feature in this arid environment. The map details a network of seasonal and perennial waterways including Willis Cr, Hall Cr, and Iowa Cr, which are critical landmarks for understanding the pastoral and environmental history of Lander County. Small but vital water points like Burro Spring illustrate the localized nature of water availability that dictated land use and survey boundaries in this part of the Great Basin. The grid of the Public Land Survey System, including t24n r43e and t25n r44e, provides the formal structure for this expanse of open country.
