About this map

The Stillwater Range dominates this Churchill County landscape, characterized by a complex system of drainages and high plateaus. Significant topographical landmarks like Table Mtn and its Carson Table Summit rise above the surrounding terrain, while peaks such as Mt Lincoln and Slaughter Peaks provide clear orientation points within the northern Great Basin environment. The scarcity of permanent water is evident in the reliance on localized sources like Stone House Spring, Elevenmile Springs, and Trap Corral Spring, which were essential for both early travelers and later ranching operations.

A network of deeply carved canyons, including West Lee Canyon and Long Canyon, illustrates the erosional patterns typical of this arid region. Human presence is marked by the lone Division Rd and various spring-fed landmarks like Sheep Canyon Spring, suggesting a history of seasonal usage or grazing support. This 2014 survey serves as a detailed record of the drainage networks and named summits that define the geography of the Stillwater area.
