1985 Map of Quinn Canyon Springs

USGS Topo · Published 1986

About this map

Quinn Canyon Range dominates this mid-1980s landscape, where steep high-desert elevations meet the broad expanse of Sand Spring Valley. The area is defined by its critical water sources, including the namesake Quinn Canyon Springs, McCutchen Spring, and Mud Spring, which have historically served as vital life-lines for livestock and prospectors in this arid Lincoln County interior. Mapping reveals a remote section of the Humboldt National Forest, characterized by complex topography and narrow drainages like Little Quinn Canyon. A single Prospect label indicates the localized search for minerals that drew early interest to these canyons, while an Indefinite Boundary suggests the challenges of surveying such isolated and difficult terrain prior to modern satellite precision.
