2021 Map of Green Springs

About this map

Green Springs Reservoir sits at the northern edge of this high-desert landscape, serving as a primary water source where Green Springs Wash and several other drainages converge. The topography is dominated by the steep slopes of the White Pine Range, which rise sharply above the eastern reaches of the expansive Railroad Valley. Within the protected boundaries of the Humboldt National Forest, the terrain is carved by deep geographic features like Lampson Canyon and Freeland Canyon. Remote water sources such as Mustang Spring and Birch Spring provide critical points of interest for those studying the arid hydrology of this region. The map also documents the administrative boundary at White Pine Co Nye Co, where White Pine Co Road 5 provides the principal overland access across the basin floor.
