The Spring Mountains dominate the eastern reaches of this mid-1980s topographic record, their slopes descending sharply into the wide expanse of the Pahrump Valley. This map captures a transition point in the high desert landscape along the border of Clark and Nye Counties. The availability of water in an otherwise arid environment is clearly marked by the presence of isolated water sources such as Santa Cruz Spring and the namesake Horse Springs, which likely served as vital landmarks for early travelers and ranchers in the region.
