2021 Map of Yellow Hills East

USGS Topo · Published 2021

About this map

Yellow Hills and the Black Buttes define the high desert topography of this region on the border of Washoe and Humboldt Counties. This 2021 survey illustrates a sparse, high-altitude landscape where water sources are vital but limited. Drainage patterns are established by Wall Canyon Cr and Cottonwood Cr, which carve through the undulating terrain. Critical water points like Mustang Spring and Buck Spring are precisely located, serving as essential landmarks in an area otherwise dominated by ridge lines and open basins. The map also delineates the precise township and range boundaries, including t41n r23.5e, reflecting the structured land management typical of the Great Basin's public lands. This recent data provides a clear record of the area's geography before any potential modern land-use changes.
