About this map

Logan Peak and the high ridges of the Stillwater Range dominate this 1990 provisional study, marking the rugged boundary between Pershing and Churchill counties. The landscape is defined by its arid-land resource management, where water sources like Logan Spring, Kitten Springs, and Mustang Spring dictate the patterns of human activity. The map reveals a history of range life and extraction, documented through the Fencemaker Camp (Corral), Boyer Ranch, and several Borrow Pits and prospects.

Deep canyons such as New York Canyon and Big Ben Canyon cut through the high elevations of Table Mountain, providing natural corridors through the terrain. A high-voltage Transmission Line and a network of 4wd tracks represent the modern infrastructure overlaying this traditional ranching and prospecting landscape. This survey preserves the exact locations of remote camps and wells like Buena Vista Well before the turn of the century.
