About this map

Smith Valley and its surrounding mountain ranges define this mid-century landscape on the border of Lyon and Douglas Counties. The valley floor is heavily influenced by water management, featuring an intricate network of irrigation infrastructure such as the Saroni Canal, Plymouth Canal, and Colony Ditch that tap into the West Walker River. Settlement centers around Smith and Wellington, with smaller agricultural and recreational outposts like Artesia Ranch and the Honker Duck Club situated near the seasonally shifting Artesia Lake.
