2014 Map of Rose Valley

About this map

Rose Valley and Dry Valley anchor this eastern Nevada landscape, where the seasonal flow of Meadow Valley Wash and Patterson Wash dictates the placement of roads and homesteads. The terrain transitions from the high ground of the Red Buttes in the north down through the prominent drainage of Long Canyon. Local ranching and travel history are reflected in the network of named routes, including Dry Valley Ranch Rd and Delmue Ranch Rd, which connect small settlements like Flat Nose to the surrounding hills. To the east, the deep incision of Echo Canyon provides a sharp contrast to the broader expanses of Hamlight Flat, illustrating the erosional forces that define this high-desert basin.
