2021 Map of Mosquito Creek

About this map

Toiyabe National Forest dominates this high-altitude landscape in central Nevada, where the steep slopes of the Monitor Range rise sharply out of the flat expanse of Monitor Valley. This 2021 survey illustrates a remote wilderness managed for conservation and recreation, characterized by seasonal watercourses like Mosquito Cr and its tributaries. The terrain transitions from the valley floor into the high elevations of Table Mtn, with rugged features like Cottonwood Canyon and Johnson Hole providing natural landmarks. A network of primitive trails, including the North Fork Mosquito Creek Trl and South Fork Mosquito Creek Trl, trace the drainages through the national forest, while the Natl Forest Develop Road 096 Rd serves as the primary artery for access into this high-desert backcountry.
