2021 Map of Moorman Spring NW

About this map

White River Valley dominates this section of the high desert, where the topographical contours reveal a vast basin floor flanked by rising slopes. This 2021 survey of the region captures the stark transition between the valley floor and the surrounding high ground, particularly at The Cove, a distinct landform where the terrain draws together along the western edge of the valley. The map is primarily defined by the intersection of the White Pine and Nye county line, tracing the legal geography across a landscape otherwise marked by public land survey townships and desert flats. This region is characterized by its isolation and the broad, open drainage patterns that define the hydrological character of south-central Nevada.
