2018 Map of Moonshine Canyon

About this map

Double H Mountains dominate the central topography of this Great Basin landscape, characterized by dramatic elevation changes and essential desert water sources. This 2018 survey records a network of vital watering points including Garden Spring, Middle Spring, and Rock Spring, which historically supported livestock and wildlife in this arid environment. The map shows the transition from the steep relief of Moonshine Canyon in the northeast to the flatter basin where the Kings River flows along the western edge. This region, defined by its Public Land Survey System townships like t43n r35e, remains a corridor for high-desert navigation where seasonal drainages like Dry Cr carve through the foothills, indicating the pulse of water in an otherwise parched terrain.
