1991 Map of Jordan Meadow Mountain

About this map

Jordan Meadow Mountain dominates the landscape of north-central Nevada, surrounded by a complex network of ephemeral drainage basins and springs. The area is defined by the high ridges of the Montana Mountains and isolated peaks like Round Mountain. This terrain is deeply marked by the region's hydrography, featuring critical water sources such as Lone Willow Spring, Big Bend Spring, and the expansive Seven Springs Basin. Numerous labels for Prospect indicate historical mining interests that likely drew early explorers and prospectors to these remote slopes. The water system, including Washburn Creek, Crowley Creek, and Rock Creek, dictates the movement across the high desert, providing a detailed look at the resource-based geography of Humboldt County during the late twentieth century.
