2018 Map of Smith

About this map

Smith Valley serves as a distinct agricultural corridor in western Lyon County, defined by the winding course of the West Walker River and the engineering of the Plymouth Canal. By the late 2010s, the landscape here reflects a combination of traditional ranching and modern rural residential development, evidenced by the dense grid of roads like Hudson Way and Smith Gage Rd surrounding the small settlements of Smith and Wellington. Genealogy and local history are anchored at the Hillcrest Cem, while the northern portion of the quadrangle shows the influence of private aviation at Rosaschi Air Park. The southern boundary transitions into the protected lands of the Toiyabe National Forest, where the terrain begins its ascent away from the irrigated valley floor.
