About this map

Maverick Springs Range dominates this portion of the high desert along the border of Elko and White Pine counties. This map details a remote landscape where water sources like Mountain Spring, Willow Spring, and Salas Spring dictated the routes of travel and early settlement patterns. The presence of Overland Rd cutting through the southern half of the quadrangle suggests its long-standing role as a corridor through the Great Basin, connecting the expansive Ruby Valley to the west with Long Valley to the east. The terrain is defined by deep draws such as Murry Canyon, illustrating the high-elevation drainage systems that characterize this part of Nevada. While largely unpopulated, the mapping of these specific named springs provides essential points of reference for local historians tracing the movement of people and livestock through these valleys.
