2014 Map of Buck Mountain East

About this map

The Ruby Mountains define the high-elevation character of this White Pine County landscape, where water sources dictated the patterns of movement and land use. Scattered across the complex topography are vital hydrologic features like Cottonwood Springs, Beck Spring, and Springtime Springs, which served as essential stopping points in an otherwise arid environment. The map details the transition from the high ridges of Alligator Ridge and Buck Mtn down into the broad expanse of Long Valley.
