The Smoke Creek Desert dominates the northwestern portion of this quadrangle, transitioning into the steep, rising contours of the Fox Range. This 2015 survey illustrates the stark divide between the expansive desert flat and the complex topography of Smith Canyon. The drainage patterns in the eastern half are defined by the Cottonwood Cr, which flows out of the Cottonwood Basin. The map provides a high-resolution view of this corner of Washoe County, where the desert floor meets the rugged western slopes of the range, offering a precise look at the landforms and township boundaries that define this part of the Nevada interior.
