2011 Map of Pyramid NE

USGS Topo · Published 2011

About this map

Pyramid Lake dominates this Nevada landscape, where the high desert meets the water at the northeast edge of the terminal basin. Along the shoreline, Fox Beach and the protected waters of Fox Bay mark the transition from the expansive lake to the rugged inland topography. The terrain rising from the water is defined by deep drainages and canyons that have shaped the region's accessibility. High above the eastern shore, the map details the descent of Sweetwater Canyon and the evocatively named Hells Kitchen Canyon, illustrating the steep vertical relief and drainage patterns typical of the Great Basin's endorheic systems.
