2012 Map of South of Amargosa Valley

About this map

Fortymile Wash and Rock Valley Wash dictate the drainage and development of this high desert terrain in Nye County. The landscape is defined by a rigid grid of roads that intersect the natural paths of these ephemeral washes, reflecting a highly planned agricultural or residential layout in a challenging environment. The naming conventions on this sheet are particularly striking, with a cluster of streets including Atomic Rd and Atomic St located near Williamson Rd and Barnett St, likely hinting at the region's proximity to the Nevada National Security Site. This area, dominated by the Amargosa Farms Rd corridor, shows a transition from structured farm plots to more open desert trails like Race Track Rd. Small local markers such as White Sands and School Ln provide specific points of interest for those researching the modern development of this desert community.
