2012 Map of North Spring Point

About this map

John Henry Wash defines much of the hydrologic character of this White Pine County landscape, cutting a wide path across the northern reaches of the quadrangle. The terrain is marked by the distinct elevation of North Spring Point, which overlooks a network of local roads and unimproved tracks in this high desert region. In the southwestern corner, Basin Spring provides a rare water source in an otherwise arid environment dominated by drainage patterns and isolation. The presence of Highline Rd running through the eastern portion of the map suggests a vital corridor for travel and land management in a sparsely populated area of Nevada during the early 21st century.
