2014 Map of Logan Peak

About this map

Logan Peak and the high ridges of the Stillwater Range dominate this 2014 survey along the boundary between Pershing and Churchill Counties. The map reveals a landscape where water is the primary arbiter of geography, marked by isolated points such as Mustang Spring, Logan Spring, and Kitten Springs. These water sources are vital landmarks in an arid expanse defined by significant vertical relief, including the broad Table Mtn and the deep incisions of Logan Canyon and Kitten Springs Canyon. Along the southern margin, the topography descends toward Cottonwood Canyon and the drainage of Cottonwood Cr. The lack of modern development emphasizes the persistent character of this Nevada high-desert environment, where canyons like New York Canyon and Cornish Canyon suggest a history of prospecting and ranching tied to the sparse springs.
