2021 Map of Meteorite Crater

USGS Topo · Published 2021

About this map

Meteorite Crater sits as the central geographic landmark of this high-desert landscape in Nye County. The terrain is defined by the broad expanse of Railroad Valley, an area characterized by its intricate drainage patterns and sparse water sources. Seasonally active watercourses like Ike Spring Wash and Little Ike Spring Wash carve through the alluvial fans at the base of the mountains, illustrating the hydrologic movement through this arid basin. A notable outlier in the southern reaches is Trap Spring, a vital point of interest in a region where surface water is otherwise limited to transient washes. This 2021 survey by the U.S. Geological Survey captures the modern topographic state of these geological features, offering a precise look at the land's contours and the intersection of the township and range survey lines.
