2018 Map of North Spring Point

About this map

The Schell Creek Range dominates the western half of this 2018 survey, rising sharply from the eastern reaches of Spring Valley. This high-altitude Nevada terrain is defined by its drainage patterns and isolated water sources, most notably the seasonal John Henry Wash and the localized Basin Spring at the mountain's base. The map reveals the stark transition between the steep, complex slopes of the range and the wide alluvial flats of the valley, a landscape shaped by the Great Basin's distinct basin-and-range geology. Human presence is minimal, evidenced primarily by the Highline Rd and other rural routes that navigate the valley floor near the landmark North Spring Point. The survey provides an exacting look at the Public Land Survey System divisions, including the boundaries of t13n r66e and t12n r66e, which are critical for tracing historic land claims and grazing rights in this part of White Pine County.
