2021 Map of Murphy Gap NW

About this map

Golden Gate Range dominates the eastern landscape of this Lincoln County survey, providing a detailed look at the high-desert topography of south-central Nevada. The western portion of the map is defined by the broad expanse of Garden Valley, a high-elevation basin where the drainage of Barton Cr and the waters of Put Back Spring and Little Davis Spring once sustained seasonal activity. This 2021 edition documents the intricate contouring and drainage patterns that connect the valley floor to the prominent heights of Rock Hill. Movement through this interior basin and range country is historically funneled through natural bottlenecks such as Cottontail Pass, which connects the valley to the higher ridgelines. The map clearly delineates the Public Land Survey System township and range grid, illustrating the systematic division of this expansive public land for grazing and mineral management.
