2014 Map of Palisade Mesa
USGS Topo · Published 2014About this map
Palisade Mesa and Halligan Mesa dominate the eastern half of this landscape, forming a high plateau that overlooks the broad expanse of Hot Creek Valley to the west. This 2014 survey by the U.S. Geological Survey documents a remote section of Nye County where survival and movement are dictated by scarce water sources and primitive roads. The distribution of Rattlesnake Springs, Iceberg Spring, and Tank Spring along the mesa edges highlights the essential hydration points for the area's wildlife and livestock.
