2021 Map of Powers Well

About this map

Long Valley stretches across the northwestern reaches of this high-desert landscape in Washoe County, flanked by the dramatic elevations of the Massacre Range and the Pinto Peak Range. The topography of this 2021 survey reveals a rugged basin-and-range environment where seasonal water is managed through sites like the Cold Weather Reservoir and the Lone Juniper Spring. This high plateau region, including the expansive Antelope Flat, remains largely undeveloped, defined primarily by its natural landmarks such as Nellie Spring Mtn and Crabapple Ridge. Access through this remote terrain is maintained by unpaved routes like C R 34 and Hays Canyon Rd, illustrating the modern management of a vast, sparsely populated grazing and wilderness area in Northern Nevada.
