2021 Map of Grassy Mountain

About this map

Grassy Mtn and the Fairview Range dominate this high-desert landscape in Lincoln County, where water sources dictated the patterns of movement and land use. The map reveals a dense network of springs and seeps vital for livestock and survival in the arid Great Basin, including Horse Corral Spring, Hidden Seep Springs, and Lone Cedar Spring. Evidence of early water management is found at Steward Reservoir, situated near the junction of Access Route Trl and Pony Springs Rd. High-elevation landmarks like Kixmiller Summit and Upper Meloy Summit provide surveying points across the terrain. Large drainage features like Coyote Wash and Maloy Wash indicate the seasonal flow patterns that shaped the Muleshoe Valley floor. This 2021 topographic record maps the persistent geography of Nevada's interior ranges, documenting named springs and primitive routes that have remained essential for generations of land users.
