2018 Map of Murphys Well

About this map

Murphys Well serves as a central landmark in this arid portion of Mineral County, where the landscape is defined by the transition between the Rawhide Hills to the northwest and the expansive Gabbs Valley to the south. This 2018 survey documents a remote desert environment characterized by township and range divisions, including t13n r32e and t13n r33e. The topography is largely defined by the drainage patterns and desert flats typical of the Great Basin. While few permanent structures are noted, the map provides critical detail for navigating the basin floor and the surrounding hills, illustrating the sparse network of desert roads and tracks that connect these isolated watering points and geographical features within the larger Nevada wilderness.
