2012 Map of Ferguson Mountain

About this map

Ferguson Springs serves as a central landmark in this high-desert landscape of eastern Nevada. The area is defined by the prominent peak of Ferguson Mountain, with drainage networks like Ferguson Cr and the extensive Dead Cedar Wash carving through the terrain. Human presence is primarily represented by the corridor of Alt 93, which bisects the quadrangle, and the historic track of Ibapah Rd crossing the southeastern corner. This environment is characterized by its vital water sources, including Little Mud Spring and Dead Cedar Spring, which have long been essential nodes for travelers and livestock in the Great Basin. The topography varies from the steep walls of Christmas Tree Canyon and Felt Canyon to the broad alluvial spans of Felt Wash.
