2012 Map of Blossom Spring

About this map

The braided course of the Reese River dominates this Lander County landscape, cutting a wide, shifting path through the valley floor. To the north, the East Battle Mountain Interchange and the Lander County Airport signal the region's modern logistical importance, connected by roads such as Muleshoe Rd and Industrial Way. Despite this infrastructure, the map reveals a sparsely populated interior where small settlements and agricultural sites like Madison and Marvel Ranch hold their ground. The naming of Blossom Spring and seasonal waterways like Little Cottonwood Creek highlight the critical role of water sources in this arid Nevada basin. A systematic grid of residential planning appears near the airport, with streets named for presidents including James Monroe and Millard Fillmore Ave, suggesting a pocket of concentrated development amidst the wide-open valley.
