Mount Irish and the Timpahute Range dominate this high-elevation landscape in eastern Nevada, where water remains the primary driver of name and movement. This 2014 survey reveals a network of vital desert water sources, including Horse Springs, Schaefer Spring, and Tunnel Spring, many of which are reached by primitive routes like Schafer Spring Rd. The topography is defined by significant relief, transitioning from the broad expanse of Wild Horse Valley to the steep slopes of Sanderson Mtn. The transport network relies on gravel and dirt roads such as N Crescent Rd and the looping Coal Springs Lp, providing access to the mining-related history of Silver Canyon and Silver Hill near the southern boundary. This map preserves the 21st-century state of these remote landmarks and mountain passes, such as Logan Pass, before further modern development or landscape changes.
