2024 Map of Rocky Canyon

USGS Topo · Published 2024

About this map

Guano Rim and the dramatic drop into Guano Valley dominate this high-desert landscape in Lake County. The terrain is defined by its seasonal hydrology, where Sage Hen Creek and its namesake Sage Hen Canyon cut through the volcanic plateaus. A remote corridor for travel, Beattys Butte Rd serves as the primary artery through this arid expanse, passing the curious landmark of Wagonslide near the rim. This 2024 survey documents a region of stark topographical contrasts, where the flat basin containing Shirk Lake sits in the shadow of the deeply incised Rocky Canyon. The map provides a detailed view of the township and range grid system across these public lands, illustrating how drainage patterns dictate the limited human footprint in this corner of the Great Basin.
