1986 Map of Boone Spring

USGS Topo · Published 1986

About this map

The Pequop Mountains dominate this high-desert landscape in northeastern Nevada, rising sharply above the eastern margin of Independence Valley. This 1986 provisional survey captures the hydraulic importance of the range, where isolated water sources like Boone Spring and Lower Boone Spring provided critical stops for travelers and livestock in an otherwise arid environment. The map details a complex drainage network where Brush Creek and Cole Creek descend from the high peaks toward the valley floor, while to the south, the terrain opens into Coyote Basin. These seasonal watercourses and springs are the primary landmarks in a region defined by its topographic extremes and remote grazing lands, showing the land as it was documented before modern geographic shifts.
