1985 Map of Upsal Hogback

About this map

The California Emigrant Trail (Carson Route) cuts through the arid landscape of the Fortymile Desert, tracing a historic path of western migration across Nevada's Churchill County. This mid-1980s terrain is defined by the stark transition from the Hot Springs Mountains in the northwest to the low-lying Lahontan Valley and the expansive Carson Sink. The volcanic rise of the Upsal Hogback stands as a prominent landmark amidst the numerous Alkali Flats that dominate the basin floor.
