About this map

Ferguson Springs serves as a critical water source in this high-altitude landscape of eastern Nevada, situated along the corridor of Alt 93. The terrain is dominated by the massive profile of Ferguson Mtn and the southern reach of the Goshute Mountains. This 2018 survey reveals a topography of deep drainages and isolated springs, where seasonal watercourses like Felt Wash and Dead Cedar Wash have carved significant features into the basin-and-range country.

Evidence of historical transit is found in the orientation of Ibapah Rd, which cuts across the southern portion of the map. The distribution of smaller features, such as Little Mud Spring and Dead Cedar Spring, highlights the sparse but vital locations that have historically supported ranching and movement through this arid region. The canyon systems, including Felt Canyon and Christmas Tree Canyon, provide a detailed look at the complex erosion patterns west of the central peaks.
