2018 Map of Weepah

About this map

Weepah sits at the heart of this Esmeralda County landscape, a site historically defined by its mineral prospecting legacy. The settlement is positioned along the northern edge of the Weepah Hills, where the high desert terrain transitions into the broad valleys of the Basin and Range province. Evidence of local travel and resource extraction is visible in the winding path of Weepah Rd, which serves as the primary artery through the hills. To the northwest, Barrel Spring provides a rare named water source in an otherwise arid environment, typical of the essential landmarks relied upon by early settlers and miners in this corner of Nevada.
