2012 Map of Indian Springs Knolls

About this map

Patterson Peak anchors the southwest corner of this high-desert landscape in White Pine County, Nevada. The terrain is defined by the alluvial fans and drainage networks characteristic of the Great Basin, where seasonal watercourses like Murphy Wash and Johns Wash descend toward the valley floor. The map highlights the eponymous Indian Springs Knolls, a series of modest elevations that interrupt the broad, sloping plains. Human activity is marked primarily by a network of rural roads and infrastructure, including Atlanta Rd and Co Rd 47, which connect the remote Indian Springs area to the wider county. The alignment of the Indian Springs Fence Line Rd suggests long-standing land management and ranching boundaries in this arid environment, providing a detailed record of local access and geography in the early twenty-first century.
