2021 Map of Dun Glen

About this map

Auld Lang Syne Peak rises over the high-desert landscape of the East Range in this portion of Pershing County. The map details a complex network of dry canyons and seasonal watercourses, including Dun Glen Canyon and the winding Barbers Cr. Named springs such as Butcher Spring and Potato Patch Spring are critical landmarks in this arid terrain, historically serving as vital stops for transit through the Great Basin. The lower elevations transition into the broad Dun Glen Flat, where Range Line RD and Barber RD provide the primary access to the scattered canyons. Researchers of Nevada mining history or ranching lore can trace the paths through Orofino Canyon and South Fork Emigrant Canyon, which suggest the historic routes used by early travelers and prospectors navigating the rugged interior of the state.
