2018 Map of Silverado Mountain

About this map

Strahlenberg sits along the western slopes of the Diamond Mountains, a central landmark in this high-altitude landscape where White Pine and Eureka counties meet. The terrain is defined by a series of prominent summits, including Silverado Mtn, Island Mtn, and Century Peak. These peaks overlook the broad expanse of Newark Valley to the east and the Alhambra Hills to the south. Water is a critical and concentrated resource in this arid environment, marked by a network of named water sources such as Muchacho Spring, Pinto Creek Springs, Mikes Spring, and Barrel Spring. The presence of Tollhouse Canyon suggests historical transport routes through the ridges, while modern access is maintained via White Pine Co Road 2, connecting the high basins and canyons of this Nevada range.
