2021 Map of Water Gap East

USGS Topo · Published 2021

About this map

The Golden Gate Range dominates the northern landscape of this Nevada interior, giving way to the expansive floor of Coal Valley. This map documents a high-desert environment where water management is the primary marker of human activity, defined by small catchments such as Sheep Reservoir Number 1 and Line Reservoir that support the local rangeland. The boundary between Nye and Lincoln counties bisects the valley, running through an area largely devoid of permanent settlements but marked by essential infrastructure like Seaman Wash Rd. In the southwest, the distinctive Water Gap provides a natural corridor through the terrain, while Triangle Spring in the northeast remains a critical natural water source. The grid-based public land survey system organizes this open country into townships like t3n r59e, illustrating how the desert is partitioned for management and grazing.
