2021 Map of Wildcat Peak NW

USGS Topo · Published 2021

About this map

Big Smoky Valley dominates the central portion of this survey, illustrating the broad, arid basins characteristic of central Nevada. The map documents the high-desert landscape as it transitions into the eastern elevations of the Toquima Range and the protected lands of the Toiyabe National Forest. The seasonal nature of the local hydrography is captured by the trace of Rock Cr in the northwest, which appears as a intermittent watercourse descending toward the valley floor. Straddling the jurisdictional boundary between Lander and Nye Counties, the map provides a precise layout of township and range sections that define the modern land use in this region. The absence of settlements emphasizes the remote, undeveloped character of these desert canyons, notably Clipper Gap Canyon, which cuts through the high ground on both the eastern and western edges of the sheet.
