2014 Map of Buckhorn Spring

About this map

The Indian Peak Range dominates the southwestern portion of this Utah landscape, where rugged topography descends into the broad expanse of Pine Valley. Water is the defining resource here, indicated by a series of named water sources that historically supported livestock and wildlife in this arid region, including Buckhorn Spring, Vance Spring, and Meadow Spring. The drainages of Indian Cr and Commissary Cr carve through the southern terrain, while Antelope Wash and Turkey Wash define the central drainage patterns. Human activity is marked primarily by ranching and resource access roads like Vance Spring Rd and Gurneys Rd. This 2014 survey captures a vast section of the Great Basin's high desert, characterized by distinctive landmarks like Elephant Back and the isolated Lower Indian Spring.
