1969 Map of Moorman Spring

USGS Topo · Published 1986

About this map

Moorman Spring (Hot) serves as a primary focal point in this high-desert landscape of Nye County, where geothermal activity and isolated water sources dictated the patterns of movement and survival. The map reveals the stark topography of the region, anchored by the wide expanse of the White River Valley to the east and the protective recesses of The Cove and Lower Cove to the west. Evidence of remote ranching and grazing infrastructure appears through isolated landmarks like Riordans Well and OPU Well, while a lonely Jeep Trail provides the only recorded passage through the steep terrain between the valleys. The survey, based on 1964 aerial photography and 1969 field checks, captures the area during a period of minimal development, preserving the exact locations of these vital desert water points before modern changes.
