About this map

Vya serves as a lone point of settlement in this remote corner of Washoe County, where the high desert terrain of Long Valley meets the rising slopes of the Hays Canyon Range. The landscape is defined by ephemeral hydrology and the ancient basins of the Great Basin, notably the expansive Fortynine Lake and the smaller Central Lake to the south. These alkali flats and intermittent water sources, including Twin Springs and the drainage of Secret Cr, illustrate the seasonal nature of life and travel in this arid environment. The road network remains sparse, centered on C R 34 and Co Rte 8a, which navigate between the prominent Black Hills and the deep incision of North Bar Canyon. This survey captures the region's enduring character as a high-altitude wilderness defined by vast open basins and volcanic uplands.
