About this map

The Toquima Range dominates this landscape, serving as a high-altitude spine between the West Northumberland Canyon and the broad eastern expanse of Monitor Valley. Within the Toiyabe National Forest, the topography is defined by sharp peaks like Mt Wilson and Mt Gooding, which flank the central passage at Northumberland Pass. This map illustrates the vital role of water in the high desert, pinpointing remote reliable sources such as Northumberland Spring, Side Hill Spring, and Water Canyon Springs. The intricate network of drainage systems, including Ella May Canyon and Perkins Canyon, highlights the erosional forces that have shaped this portion of Nye County. Forest Service access is traced through routes like Natl Forest Develop Road 485 Rd, reflecting the modern management of these traditional transit corridors through the Great Basin.
