2015 Map of Double Hot Springs

About this map

Double Hot Springs and the expansive northern reaches of the Black Rock Desert dominate this part of Humboldt County. The landscape is defined by its thermal features and intermittent water sources, where the Soldier Meadow Rd provides the primary transit corridor through the arid terrain. To the north, Jackson Reservoir suggests a managed water point in an otherwise dry basin, while numerous named springs like Bronco Springs, Van Riper Spring, and Casey Springs mark critical survival and navigation landmarks for those traversing the high desert. The drainage patterns of Clapper Cr and Cow Cr underscore the region's relationship with seasonal runoff. This survey provides a precise view of the topography and hydrology in a remote corner of Nevada, emphasizing the isolation and specific geographic markers essential for regional exploration.
