2014 Map of Cabin Spring

About this map

Butte Mountains dominate the eastern landscape of this White Pine County quadrangle, rising sharply above the expansive floor of Long Valley. The terrain is characterized by the classic high-desert basin and range structure of eastern Nevada, where water sources like Cabin Spring served as vital landmarks for travel and ranching. A single rural road, CR-3, skirts the southwestern edge of the valley, representing the sparse infrastructure found in this remote section of the Great Basin. This 2014 survey captures the undisturbed topography of the region, showing the complex drainage patterns and elevation contours that define the western slopes of the mountains and the vast alluvial flats below.
