2021 Map of Russell Peak

USGS Topo · Published 2021

About this map

Russell Peak stands as the central landmark of this high-desert terrain where the western slopes of the Nightingale Mountains meet the northern reaches of the Truckee Range. The landscape is defined by its arid isolation, bridged only by the winding path of Valley Rd in the southwest and the remote crossing of the Pershing Co / Washoe Co boundary line. In an environment dominated by steep ridges and dry basins, isolated water sources like Coyel Spring and the drainage of Coyote Canyon were critical points of orientation for early surveyors and travelers navigating this section of Nevada. The topography shown here emphasizes the intricate drainage patterns and elevation changes that dictated the early paths and land use throughout the Great Basin.
