2021 Map of Red Mountain

About this map

Summit Lake Mtn and the southern reaches of the Black Rock Range define this high-desert landscape in northwestern Nevada. The area is marked by a complex network of drainage systems, including Slumgullion Cr and Soldier Cr, which cut through the arid terrain. Human presence is sparse, centered primarily on the corridor of Soldier Meadows Rd as it skirts the northern foothills. This 2021 survey highlights the remote character of the region, where water sources like Tule Spring are critical landmarks. Significant topographical features such as Tollhouse Canyon and White Rock Canyon suggest the difficult travel routes once utilized by early inhabitants and ranching operations moving through the Red Mtn vicinity.
