About this map

Boone Spring serves as a vital water source in this arid high-desert landscape of eastern Nevada. The terrain is defined by the prominent Antelope Range and the Boone Spring Hills, which together frame the eponymous Boone Canyon. Mapping conducted in the late 1970s and early 1980s reveals a region largely shaped by resource extraction and transit, evidenced by several sites marked simply as Prospect and a Gravel Pit near the range's base. This remote area is crisscrossed by an extensive network of Jeep Trails, indicating the persistent use of the land for exploration and access to the interior of the Red Knoll and Kinsley Draw. The sparse infrastructure of the early 1980s suggests a landscape primarily dedicated to mining interests and cattle range rather than permanent settlement.
