About this map

Duckwater Valley defines this arid landscape in central Nevada, where water sources dictated the sparse human presence of the late 20th century. The mountain slopes are marked by three named hydrologic features: Bradshaw Spring, Indian Spring, and Leeman Spring, which provide critical life-points in a high-desert environment. This 1988 field-check captures a working landscape of resource extraction and transit, evidenced by several Gravel Pits, exploratory Prospects, and a remote Water Well. The presence of Landing Strips and a single isolated Grave in the valley floor suggests the isolation of the area. A network of primitive 4 WD tracks and a man-made Ditch system alongside Duckwater Creek reveal how early inhabitants and surveyors navigated and modified this portion of Nye County to sustain livestock or mining operations.
