2011 Map of South of Fallon

About this map

The high desert south of Fallon reveals a landscape defined by ranching infrastructure and drainage patterns in the early 21st century. Smith Ranch serves as a central landmark in this Churchill County expanse, situated where the arid terrain transitions toward organized pastoral lands. To the east, a network of rural roads and lanes, including Kennedy Ln, Allen Rd, and Flying K Ranch Rd, indicates a spread-out settlement pattern centered on livestock management. This is further evidenced by functional outposts such as West Corral and Southwest Corral. The natural geography is marked by the seasonal path of Sam Spring Wash, which cut through the southwestern portion of the quadrangle, illustrating the importance of water management in this Nevada basin.
