2021 Map of Barrel Springs

About this map

The High Desert borderlands where Nevada, Oregon, and California meet are defined by isolated water sources and sharp topographic rises. This modern survey of the Barrel Springs area in northern Washoe Co shows a landscape deeply shaped by the Public Land Survey System, with township and range lines cutting across high plateaus and drainage systems. Centered on the namesake Barrel Springs, the map tracks the path of Barrel Springs Rd as it winds through high-altitude terrain north of the state line. Notable landmarks include the prominent Dunn Butte near the northern boundary and the intermittent flow of Twelvemile Cr and Horse Cr. These features, alongside Coleman Spring, represent the vital water points that have historically supported ranching and transit in this arid corner of the Great Basin.
