2014 Map of Pogues Station

About this map

Pogues Station serves as the namesake for this high-desert landscape in the modern era, marking a focal point along the winding path of Cr-7 in the western reaches of the quadrangle. The terrain is dominated by the northern extent of the Pancake Range, where high-altitude peaks and basins define the local hydrology. Water sources are scarce but critical, evidenced by the presence of Soda Spring and the Nevada Governors Spring, which support the drainage patterns of Duckwater Cr. The transition between basins is most notable at Red Rock Summit, a prominent landmark for travelers moving through this portion of Nye County. This survey clearly illustrates the administrative divisions of the region, specifically where the border between White Pine and Nye counties intersects the township and range grids of T16N and T15N.
