2012 Map of Reno NW

About this map

Cold Springs sits at the heart of this high-desert basin, where residential development clusters around the ephemeral shoreline of White Lake. This 2012 survey captures the northern expansion of the Reno metropolitan area, showing the established suburban grid of Reno-Stead and the rural outposts of Border Town and Copperfield. The landscape is defined by the transition from the valley floors of Cold Spring Valley and Laughton Valley to the rocky elevations of the Granite Hills and Granite Peak. Transportation and infrastructure dominate the southern corridor, marked by the Cold Springs Valley Interchange and regional facilities like the Reno-Stead Airport and Sierra Sage Golf Course. To the east, the basin of Silver Lake and the residential pockets of Lemmon Valley illustrate the ongoing transformation of Washoe County as it grew in the early 21st century.
