About this map

Hayford Peak stands as the literal and figurative high point of this high-altitude landscape in the late 1980s. Located within the Desert National Wildlife Range, the area is defined by the steep elevation changes between the Sheep Range and the Desert Range. Water is a critical, scarce resource in this environment, marked by a series of named water sources such as Yellowjacket Spring, Bootleg Spring, and White Rock Spring. The presence of these springs, along with the Pack Trail winding through the terrain, indicates a landscape used by travelers and wildlife alike. The topography transitions from deep canyons like Yellowjacket Canyon and Quijinump Canyon to the high elevations of Hidden Forest Ridge, providing a look at the natural management of southern Nevada’s mountain corridors before modern expansion.
