2023 Map of Pinto Spring

About this map

The high ridges of the Indian Peak Range dominate this interior landscape, marking a remote boundary between Beaver and Iron counties. This modern topographic survey highlights a network of vital water sources in an otherwise arid high-elevation environment, including a concentration of named springs such as Big Pinto Spring, Pinto Spring, and Merrill Camp Spring. The drainage patterns are clearly defined by Cottonwood Creek and Pinto Creek, which carve through the slopes alongside smaller seasonal flows like Atchison Creek and Sheep Creek. Historically significant for ranching and resource management, the map traces the subtle transitions in the landscape near Jackson Wash, providing a precise record of the topography and naming conventions used by the U.S. Geological Survey and other land management agencies.
