About this map

Coldwater Spring and Garden Spring serve as vital water sources in this high-altitude reach of Lincoln County. The landscape is defined by the sharp transition from the Clover Mountains in the north to the Tule Desert in the southeast. Numerous drainage systems, including Garden Wash and Coldwater Cr, have carved deep depressions like Horse Pasture Canyon and Cougar Canyon into the terrain.

Remote landmarks such as Sawmill Mtn and Garden Mtn dominate the horizon, while the presence of named points like Box Spring and Horse Springs suggests the historical importance of these specific locations for livestock or travelers in an otherwise arid environment. The map provides a detailed view of the natural topography before the desert floor begins to level out at the quadrangle's southern edge.
