USGS Topo · Published 1973

About this map

Big Sand Springs Valley dominates the western half of this 1968 survey, presenting a broad, arid basin shaped by the Sand Springs Wash. To the east, the topography shifts dramatically toward the high terrain of the Pancake Range and the distinct Red Hills. This landscape is marked by the limited but essential presence of water sources, such as Etcheverria Well, which provided a critical waypoint for those navigating this portion of Nye County.
