About this map

Meadow Valley Wash defines the north-south corridor of this Lincoln County landscape, carving through high desert terrain between the Clover Mountains and the canyon-cut plateaus to the west. This valley has served as a vital transportation artery for decades, evidenced by the presence of the small settlements at Stine and Boyd located directly along the watercourse. The map reveals a complex network of canyons and drainage systems, such as Rock Springs Canyon and Whiskey Spring Canyon, which feed into the primary wash. Notable water sources like Flying Machine Spring and Hummingbird Spring are dotted throughout the higher elevations, while the southern portion of the quadrangle opens into the broader Ash Flat before narrowing again into the dramatic Rainbow Canyon.
