2021 Map of Weepah

About this map

The high desert terrain of the Weepah Hills dominates this 2021 survey of central Esmeralda County. Centered on the settlement of Weepah, the map documents a landscape defined by sharp elevation changes and arid drainage patterns typical of the Great Basin. Access to this isolated area is primarily via Weepah Rd, which winds through the hills toward the northern reaches of the Big Smoky Valley. A rare water source, Barrel Spring, is noted in the northwestern sector of the quadrangle, highlighting the vital locations that supported early movement through these hills. This contemporary look at the township boundaries of T1N, T2N, and T1S R39E-R40E provides a clear record of the topographic features and modern road alignments in a region historically known for its mining activity.
