2011 Map of Nixon NW

About this map

Pyramid Lake dominates the southwestern portion of this Washoe County landscape, offering a high-resolution look at the shoreline and surrounding basin. The survey clearly delineates the distinct boundaries of Anaho Island, a landform within the lake's expanse. The eastern half of the map is defined by a series of intermittent drainage paths that move across the desert terrain, illustrating the hydrologic patterns of this arid Nevada environment. The 2011 survey focuses on these natural topographic elements, documenting the shoreline and island formations with contemporary precision for the United States Geological Survey.
