About this map

Lime Mountain dominates the high ground of this eastern Nevada landscape, where the water-scarce terrain is defined by its seasonal drainages and vital spring sites. The movement of water across this arid high desert is traced through networks like Sams Camp Wash and Garden Wash, which channel runoff toward localized collection points. The presence of Sams Camp Reservoir and Middle Pond Reservoir indicates the historical importance of water management for local ranching or transit through this portion of Lincoln County.

Key landmarks such as Jones Spring Point and various named water sources like Jones Spring and Snow Spring offer specific points of interest for those studying the early resource hubs of the region. The map captures the infrastructure of the desert, from the Snow Trough to isolated springs like Gordon Spring, reflecting the sparse but critical network of points that supported activity in this remote environment.
