2013 Map of Lidy Hot Springs

About this map

Lidy Hot Springs and the small settlement of Winsper anchor the southeastern corner of this high-desert landscape in Clark County. The topography is defined by significant drainage systems and spring-fed basins, including Warm Springs Cr, Blue Cr, and the isolated Stinking Spring. A historical layer is visible through the path of the Emigrant Trail Rd, which cuts across the southwest, tracing a route used by travelers long before the modern development of Id-22 and the Monteview Hwy. The terrain rises to the northwest at Maud Mtn, overlooking a network of cattle-country tracks such as Grouse Hollow Rd and Chandler Canyon Rd. This survey documents a quiet pastoral and geothermal area where the water sources, like Antelope Spring and Three Springs, dictated the placement of early homesteads and transport corridors.
