2021 Map of Pidgeon Spring SW

USGS Topo · Published 2021

About this map

The Black Rock Range dominates this portion of Humboldt County, characterized by extreme topographic relief that defines the western edge of the Great Basin's iconic basins. Elevations rise sharply from the flat alkali expanse of the Black Rock Desert in the east to the high summits of Burnt Rock Peak and Rocky Peak. This 2021 survey illustrates the stark transition between the playa floor and the mountain block, where the drainage patterns and contour density reveal a landscape shaped by faulting and erosion. The area remains largely defined by its natural landforms, with very few human markers beyond the established township and range lines like t37n r27e and t36n r26e. Researchers of Nevada's wilderness will find the detailed elevation data useful for navigating the complex terrain of the range and its interface with the vast desert floor below.
