About this map

The Goose Creek Mountains anchor this high-elevation landscape where the borders of Utah and Nevada meet. This 2014 survey documents a network of remote drainages and mountain crossings essential for navigating the complex topography of Box Elder and Elko Counties. Significant geographical markers include Judd Mtn and Deans Pass, which provide passage through the upland terrain.

Water management is a central theme of the map, evidenced by a series of high-country impoundments and natural flows. The map details the South Fork Reservoir, Burnt Reservoir, and Deans Pass Reservoir, alongside vital water sources such as Triple Group Springs, Cold Spring, and Rock Spring. These features, connected by several branches of Spring Cr, highlight the historical and ongoing importance of water security in this arid borderland region. Historic routes like Wagon Box Pass further suggest the area's legacy as a transit corridor between the Great Basin and the Snake River Plain.
