2014 Map of McIntyre Summit

About this map

McIntyre Summit rises as a central topographic landmark in this high-desert portion of Nye County, dividing two significant drainage basins. The landscape is defined by the broad expanses of West Stone Cabin Valley and East Stone Cabin Valley, which represent the characteristic basin-and-range geography of central Nevada. Water sources in this arid environment are concentrated along Willow Cr and Hot Cr, which provide the primary drainage from the surrounding uplands. Access through the rugged terrain is maintained via a network of forest roads, including Nf-402, Nf-006, and Nf-162. The map also captures the intricate White Rocks Canyon in the northeast, detailing the complex network of ridges and canyons that define this part of the Nevada interior.
