2014 Map of Potosi

About this map

Potosi Mtn dominates the northeastern corner of this map, serving as a high-altitude anchor for the southern reaches of the Spring Mountains. The terrain transitions from the high peaks of the Toiyabe National Forest down through Potosi Pass and into the arid expanse of the Mojave Desert. This landscape is defined by its water sources, with several critical points such as Potosi Spring, Mexican Spring, and Keystone Spring providing relief in an otherwise parched environment. To the southwest, the settlement of Sandy Valley sits near the base of Ragged Peak, illustrating the sparse but strategic human presence in the valley floor. Transportation through these elevations is marked by historical routes like Pahrump Rd and Kingston Rd, which navigate the desert floor and mountain gaps such as Wilson Pass.
