2021 Map of Moores Station SW

USGS Topo · Published 2021

About this map

Hot Creek Valley dominates this high-desert basin in Nye County, showing the characteristic basin-and-range topography of central Nevada. The drainage of Moores Station Wash cuts through the center of the sheet, originating from the elevations of the Toiyabe National Forest in the northwest corner. This 2021 survey illustrates the stark geographic transition between the valley floor and the prominent geological formations of Halligan Mesa and Williams Ridge in the southeast. In the northeast, the map captures a portion of the Needle Range, providing a detailed view of the waterless washes and topographic relief that defined the ranching and transit corridors of this sparsely populated region. The lack of built infrastructure reflects the preservation of the open range and federal forest lands as they existed in the early twenty-first century.
