2011 Map of Weber Dam

About this map

Weber Dam anchors this arid Nevada landscape, managing the flow of the Walker River to create the Weber Reservoir. The region is defined by prominent topographical landmarks including the colorful slopes of the Calico Hills to the southeast and the elevated expanse of Painted Mesa to the north. Transportation through this part of Lyon County follows the long, north-south corridor of Long Valley, while local access is maintained by routes such as Little Dam Rd. The map illustrates a high-desert environment where water management infrastructure is the primary driver of development and settlement patterns, contrasting sharply with the surrounding unpopulated valley and mesa terrain.
