About this map

Long Valley dominates this high desert landscape in northwestern Nevada, characterized by a series of vital water sources and ephemeral basins during the mid-1960s. The map captures a remote section of Washoe County where survival and land use were historically dictated by the location of seeps and named springs. Distinctive landmarks such as Townsend Spring, Indian Spring, and Sheep Camp Spring highlight the locations where water was accessible to livestock or early travelers.
