2011 Map of Trinity Peak

About this map

Trinity Peak commands the skyline of this high desert landscape within the Trinity Range of Pershing County. This topographic study reflects the arid and sparsely populated character of the Great Basin, where drainage patterns and unpaved routes are the primary evidence of human and natural activity. The map reveals a complex network of seasonal washes and steep contouring typical of the region, centered on the significant elevation of Trinity Peak. The lack of named settlements or major infrastructure highlights the isolation of this corner of Nevada, making the few established tracks through the range vital markers for navigation and local land use.
