About this map

Mason's Crossing serves as a lonely junction for early trails in this northern Nevada landscape, surveyed during the 1880s under Director J.W. Powell. The area is defined by the massive Pine Forest Mountains and Jackson Mountains, which rise between the arid expanse of the Black Rock Desert and the Kings River Valley. Numerous natural thermal features are noted, with Hot Springs appearing frequently along the base of the ranges and near the Thousand Creek drainage.
