About this map

White River drainage channels and high-desert water sources define this Nye County landscape as documented in 2012. The area is characterized by essential pastoral and hydrological markers, including Sheep Pass Corral and a series of named desert seeps such as Hardy Springs, Dee Gee Spring, and Blind Spring. These locations represent critical stopping points in an arid environment where terrain and water dictate movement.

The landscape is further shaped by prominent natural features like Sheep Pass Canyon and Ninemile Canyon, which carve through the high ground. A network of rural routes, including Co RD-14 and Co RD-15, provides the primary access to this interior region. The presence of Ruppes Boghole suggests the specific, local character of the terrain's low-lying drainage points used by ranchers and land managers in the early 21st century.
