2018 Map of New Pass Well

About this map

Edwards Creek Valley dominates this Churchill County landscape, forming a wide alluvial expanse bounded on the east by the rising contours of the New Pass Range. This 2018 survey reveals a sparse, high-desert environment defined by essential water points and basic transport infrastructure. The eponymous New Pass Well stands as a critical landmark for the area's history, situated near the intersection of several local routes. Significant thoroughfares like Alpine N Rd, Alpine E, and the distinctly named Hay Stacks trace the valley floor, highlighting the minimal yet vital road network required to navigate this remote Great Basin terrain. The map's detailed grid, including sections of t21n r39e and t22n r40e, provides an essential framework for understanding land tenure and historical ranching or mining access within the basin.
