1986 Map of Fagin Mountain

USGS Topo · Published 1986

About this map

The Simpson Park Mountains dominate this 1980s landscape, bisected by the county line separating Lander and Eureka. The map reveals an environment defined by its water sources, with numerous named springs such as Crystal Spring, Sheep Corral Spring, and Underwood Spring punctuating the arid terrain. These points of water often correlate with human activity, indicated by several Prospects and Wells scattered through the canyons. Notable high points like Fagin Mountain and Buck Mountain overlook a complex network of drainages, including Moonshine Canyon, Big Canyon, and Cottonwood Canyon. In the northwest corner, the terrain transitions into the expanse of Grass Valley and the Alkali Flat. A solitary Landing Strip situated near the valley floor highlights the necessity of aerial access in this isolated section of the Great Basin.
