2021 Map of Placerites

About this map

The Kamma Mountains dominate this high-desert landscape in Pershing County, where water is the primary driver of names and movement. Remote springs such as Outlaw Spring, Corral Spring, and Judges Springs provide critical landmarks across the arid terrain. The map traces the path of Seven Troughs Rd as it skirts the eastern mountain edges, following a historic corridor through the Great Basin. Drainage patterns like Rabbithole Cr and the winding Cow Canyon illustrate the natural runoff routes that define the topography between the township lines of T33N and T32N. This survey documents the intersection of essential ranching or survival resources in a sparsely populated section of the Nevada desert.
