2021 Map of Outlaw Springs

About this map

Cedar Mountains dominate the landscape of this Esmeralda County high-desert terrain. This survey reflects the remote character of the Great Basin, where topographic lines reveal steep slopes and significant elevation changes across the range. The primary water source, Outlaw Springs, is situated on the eastern flank of the mountains, a critical landmark in an otherwise arid environment. The map captures the complex township and range system common in Nevada's federal lands, including portions of t6n r38e and t5n r39e. Researchers of Western history will find the placement of historic water sources and mountain terrain useful for understanding the movement of people and livestock through this unpopulated corridor.
