2018 Map of Silver Peak
USGS Topo · Published 2018About this map
Silver Peak and the nearby site of Blair anchor this high-desert landscape in the southwestern corner of Esmeralda County. The map details a complex geological and hydraulic environment, from the thermal waters at Silver Peak Hot Springs and Hot Spring to the distinct landforms of the Monocline and the Crater. Evidence of the region’s long mining legacy is visible in names like Mineral Ridge, Galena Flats, and Custer Gulch, while the surrounding Silver Peak Range is dissected by several named drainages including Great Gulch and New York Canyon. The transition from the rugged highlands down to the arid floor of the Ralston Desert is traced by several isolated water sources such as Tarantula Spring, Macaroni Spring, and Coyote Spring, which were vital markers in this water-scarce terrain.
