2012 Map of Deadman Spring NE

About this map

Two and One Half Spring serves as a vital water source in this arid stretch of Lincoln County, highlighting the sparse but critical hydrological network required for life and livestock in the high desert. The map captures a landscape defined by seasonal drainages and isolated landmarks, including the curiously named Swiss Bob Reservoir in the northwest. To the southeast, the terrain is marked by a distinct geological feature known as The Crack. The distribution of these few named points among an extensive network of unimproved roads and 4WD tracks reflects the remote character of eastern Nevada, where survival and travel are dictated by the location of reliable springs and man-made catchments.
