2021 Map of Leith

About this map

Meadow Valley Wash winds through this arid section of Lincoln County, defining the drainage patterns that shaped the local geography. Near the water's edge, the small settlement of Kyle sits at the base of the surrounding plateaus. The landscape is deeply incised by a network of drainage features, including Horse Pasture Canyon, Horse Springs Canyon, and Cottonwood Canyon. These natural corridors have historically dictated movement through the basin-and-range topography. Water remains a critical element for navigation and land use in this desert environment, marked by several named points such as Oil Spring, Mudhole Spring, and the optimistically named Fountain of (Youth Spring). To the south, Leith Canyon and Long Valley provide further definition to the complex terrain accessed by Carp Rd and Co Rte 4230.
