2014 Map of Reveille

About this map

The Reveille Range dominates this landscape in central Nevada, representing a remote section of the Great Basin where high-elevation peaks and arid basins intersect. This 2014 survey documents a rugged and largely unpopulated territory within Nye County, characterized by prominent geological landmarks such as Goblin Knobs and Streuben Knob. The mapping of these peaks alongside rare water sources like Hyde Spring highlights the critical importance of reliable springs in an environment defined by extreme aridity. The intricate contour work illustrates the complex drainages and alluvial fans that spill out from the central range, providing a technical perspective on the topography of the public land survey system divisions like t3n r51.5e and t2.5n r52e before they descend into the surrounding valley floors.
