2018 Map of Pot Spring

About this map

Long Valley dominates the central floor of this high-altitude basin landscape, which straddles the boundary between Elko and White Pine counties. The terrain is characterized by the ephemeral drainage of Long Valley Wash, which cuts north-to-south through the valley floor. To the east, the topography rises sharply into the Butte Mountains, while Hamilton Butte serves as a prominent landmark in the south. The presence of Pot Spring and White Rock Spring along the mountain flanks suggests the vital role of these isolated water sources in an otherwise arid region of Nevada. The map details the complex Public Land Survey System grid, including townships t26n r60e and t25n r61e, providing a precise look at the land division and remote road tracks used for access during the early twenty-first century.
