2018 Map of Presnel Well

About this map

Presnel Well serves as a primary reference point in this arid stretch of Humboldt County, Nevada. The landscape is defined by the rigid grid of the Public Land Survey System, specifically within the boundaries of t39n r34e and t38n r34e. Human presence is sparse, marked primarily by the linear path of Sod House Rd, which cuts diagonally across the northern sections. This 2018 survey illustrates the vast, open character of the Great Basin, where isolated water sources like wells often dictated the movement and management of land. The map provides a clear look at the intersection of township lines, including t39n r33e and t38n r33e, which are essential for property research and identifying historical land claims in this corner of the state.
