2021 Map of Minerva

About this map

Spring Valley and the expansive, arid expanse of Baking Powder Flat dominate this eastern Nevada landscape in White Pine County. The small settlement of Minerva sits at the base of the mountains to the east, positioned along Shoshone Rd. This 2021 survey illustrates a sparse ranching and mining environment where water sources like Blind Spring and drainages such as Murphy Wash are critical landmarks. The road network, including Swallow Canyon Rd and S Highline Rd, follows the natural contours of the valley floor, reflecting the isolated rural character of the Great Basin. Large-scale public land divisions are clearly marked, showing the section lines of Townships 10 North through 12 North that define the local geography.
