About this map

Seyler Peak and the high ridges of the Toquima Range dominate the western and southeastern horizons of this Nevada landscape, dropping steeply into the expansive Big Smoky Valley. This 2014 survey documents a rugged corridor where historical transit and modern infrastructure intersect, most notably along the Fremont Route, which skirts the foothills near Coyote Hole Spring.

Water management is critical in this arid environment, evidenced by the presence of the Seyler Reservoir and several isolated water sources such as Palo Alto Spring. Significant portions of the land fall within the Toiyabe National Forest, while the southern reaches are defined by the drainage of Manhattan Gulch. Transportation is anchored by Highway 376, providing a clear view of how development follows the valley floor between the mountain flanks.
