2021 Map of Boulder Mountain

About this map

Boulder Mtn serves as a central anchor for this remote high-desert landscape, where several distinct mountain ranges converge, including the Home Camp Range and Hays Canyon Range. The topography is defined by its seasonal and year-round water sources, vital for the region's ranching history. Names like Mare Pasture Spring, Horse Canyon Springs, and Chicken Spring suggest a long legacy of livestock management across Upper Meadow and Lower Meadow. Local water management is further evidenced by several collection points such as Jack Reservoir, Black Rock Reservoir, and the Sheep Trough Tank. In the north, Boulder Flat and Rye Grass Field provide level breaks in the terrain between the rising slopes of the Pinto Peak Range and the boulder-strewn fields that give the mountain its name.
