2015 Map of Tempiute Mountain SE

About this map

Timpahute Range dominates the northern reaches of this Lincoln County survey, giving way to the southern expanse of Tikaboo Valley. This high-desert landscape is defined by its isolation and the network of access roads that navigate its elevations. Tempiute Mine Rd suggests the proximity of regional mining operations, a common thread in the history of eastern Nevada, while other routes like Savio Rd and Red Cow Rd cross the basin floor. The geography here is typical of the Great Basin, where prominent mountain ranges transition abruptly into dry valley floors, creating a distinctive pattern of drainage and topography that has historically influenced travel and land use in this part of the state.
