About this map

McIntyre Summit serves as a prominent geographic landmark in this high-altitude reach of Nye County, where the topography transitions between broad basins and steep canyon walls. The landscape is defined by the expansive West Stone Cabin Valley and East Stone Cabin Valley, which are bisected by intermittent drainage systems. Water courses like Willow Creek and Hot Creek carve through the arid terrain, leading toward rugged features such as White Rocks Canyon in the northeast.

Remote transportation routes including NFD 402 Rd and NFD 008 Rd provide the primary access to this sparsely settled region. This 2012 survey illustrates the modern configuration of Forest Service roads as they navigate the natural gaps between the valleys, reflecting the ongoing use of these public lands for ranching or recreational transit in a geography where water sources remain the most critical landmarks.
