2015 Map of Massacre Creek

USGS Topo · Published 2015

About this map

Massacre Mtn and the surrounding high desert of Washoe County are defined by a complex network of seasonal water sources and deep volcanic canyons. In this arid corner of Nevada, the landscape is oriented around life-sustaining points like Emigrant Spring, Mud Spring, and Willow Spring, which provided essential stops for travelers long before modern roads reached the interior. The topographic relief is punctuated by dramatic formations such as Bruffs Rock and the steep walls of Hanging Rock Canyon.
