1980 Map of Eagle Rock Spring

USGS Topo · Published 1980

About this map

The Lava Beds dominate the eastern reaches of this Pershing County landscape, where volcanic topography defines the high-desert environment. The presence of Lava Beds Camp and several vital water sources like Eagle Rock Spring and Mustang Spring indicates the area's importance for range management and seasonal occupation during the late 20th century. While much of the terrain is characterized by a deep Canyon and steep elevation changes, a network of tracks including a Jeep Trail and various other paths connect these isolated outposts. A single Prospect located in the southern hills points to the persistent legacy of mineral exploration that has long drawn surveyors and miners to the Nevada interior. This survey captures a moment when the utilitarian needs of ranching and exploration intersected with the prehistoric geological features of the Great Basin.
