About this map

Nellie Spring Mountain dominates the southwestern corner of this high-desert landscape in Washoe County, where a network of seasonal water sources and rugged trails define the local geography. The settlement at Grassy Ranch serves as a lone human outpost near the intersection of Grassy Canyon and the surrounding tablelands. To the northeast, the High Rock Canyon PACK TRAIL winds through High Rock Canyon, following a path past Canyon Spring. This 1970s survey illustrates a region shaped by ranching and small-scale exploration, evidenced by scattered Prospects and water management features like Argon Res and the Lower Indian Spring. Numerous Jeep Trail routes crisscross the terrain, connecting various unnamed springs that have long been vital for survival and movement through this corner of Nevada.
