2018 Map of Snowstorm Mountain

A notable topographic contrast exists between the sharp ascents of the southern peaks and the more level expanse of Snowstorm Flat to the north. Seasonal water features like Mud Lake and the headwaters of Sheep Cr provide evidence of the intermittent hydrology common to the Great Basin. The landscape remains largely defined by its natural features and surveying boundaries rather than human settlement, preserving a specific look at the region’s geography during the late 2010s.
