About this map

Fish Creek Mountains dominate this high-desert landscape in Lander County, defining a complex topography of drainage and elevation. The northern reaches are shaped by the Horseshoe Basin, while the western edge gives way to the broad Fish Creek Basin. This area is characterized by seasonal water flow, most notably along Fish Cr, which threads through the mountain canyons. Human imprint on this remote terrain is sparse, centered primarily on the lone corridor of Fish Creek Rd in the southeastern quadrant. To the south, the evocative Valley of the Moon offers a distinct geographic depression among the peaks, providing a clear example of the Great Basin's characteristic basin-and-range structure. This survey documents the intersection of public land survey sections and natural landforms in an area largely untouched by modern development.
