2021 Map of Nopah Peak

USGS Topo · Published 2021

About this map

Nopah Peak rises as the prominent high point within the Nopah Range, anchoring a landscape that straddles the California-Nevada border. This arid region of the Mojave Desert is characterized by its stark topographical transitions, where the steep slopes of the range descend into the broad, flat reaches of the Pahrump Valley to the east and the Chicago Valley to the west. The map illustrates a strictly delineated environment, governed by the diagonal line separating Inyo County and Nye County. The absence of developed settlements or roads in this 2021 study reflects the area's role as a protected wilderness, where the natural landforms of the Great Basin dictate the geography. Researchers can observe how section lines and township boundaries like t22n r8e intersect with the dramatic elevation changes of the mountain block.
