2012 Map of Marking Corral Summit

About this map

Marking Corral Summit stands as the central topographic feature in this high-altitude landscape of White Pine County, recorded during a 2012 survey. The area is defined by a sparse but essential network of rural routes, including Thirtymile Rd and Bothwick Rd, which trace the natural contours of the basin and range terrain. These roads indicate a history of land management and transit through this part of the Great Basin, where water sources like Summit Spring and the drainage of Illipah Creek dictate the patterns of human activity. The map reveals the layout of local infrastructure, including Co Rd 17 and Jakes Wash Rd, which serve as vital connectors in a territory where elevation and access to seasonal water define the utility of the land.
