2018 Map of Shoshone Meadows NE

About this map

The Augusta Mountains dominate the eastern landscape of this high-desert region on the border of Churchill and Lander counties. This 2018 survey captures a terrain defined by significant elevation changes and deep drainage patterns, characteristic of the Great Basin's rugged topography. Evidence of life in this arid environment is centered on isolated water sources like Cain Spring, located in the northeastern corner of the map. The map provides a precise layout of the Public Land Survey System, illustrating the grid of townships and ranges such as t24n r39e and t25n r40e that divide this remote interior. The sparse network of secondary roads and 4WD tracks reflects the area's isolation and its primary use for ranching or resource management within the high Nevada desert.
