2021 Map of The Wall

USGS Topo · Published 2021

About this map

The Wall and the Pancake Range dominate this section of Nye County, where high-desert topography defines the landscape. The map provides a detailed view of the drainage patterns moving between the mountain elevations and the lower flats, notably through the Sand Springs Wash. To the southwest, the terrain opens into the Big Sand Springs Valley, while the eastern edge of the quadrangle marks the descent into the expansive Railroad Valley. A specific point of human-made infrastructure in this arid environment is the Narrows Catch Basin, designed to manage the intermittent water flow characteristic of the Great Basin. This survey illustrates the township and range divisions of the Public Land Survey System, specifically across portions of t7n r53e and t7n r54e, showing how the land was partitioned for management in a region defined by its wide, open valleys and isolated mountain chains.
