2018 Map of Mount Airy Mesa

About this map

Mt Airy Mesa dominates the southwestern quadrant of this high-desert landscape in Nevada’s Great Basin. The terrain is characterized by intricate contouring that illustrates the dramatic elevation changes across the mesa and surrounding ridges. Water is a scarce and defining element in this arid environment, represented by the ephemeral course of Antelope Creek, which winds northward through the central valleys. The map primarily documents the public land survey system divisions, showing the intersections of Townships 19 and 20 North with Ranges 41 and 42 East. These grid lines provide essential orientation for researchers examining land use and historical property boundaries in this sparsely populated section of Lander County.
