2014 Map of Jackson Spring

About this map

Goose Creek Mountains and the prominent Kilgore Ridge dominate this corner of the Great Basin, where the high-altitude terrain crosses the Nevada-Utah state line and the Elko and Box Elder county boundaries. The landscape is defined by its water sources, specifically Kilgore Spring and Jackson Spring, which are critical points of interest in an otherwise arid environment. This 2014 survey documents a rugged topographical profile spanning from the high peaks down into the Tecoma Valley. The human footprint is sparse, primarily represented by the Kilgore Basin Rd, indicating a region where natural landforms and remote access routes remain the primary features for researchers and explorers of the borderlands.
