About this map

Butte Mountains dominate the high terrain of this Nevada interior, providing a stark vertical contrast to the broad expanse of Jakes Valley in the southeast. The 2018 landscape is defined by its scarce but vital water sources, including the namesake Sammy Springs, Indian Spring, and the curiously named Robbers Roost Number Two Spring.

Agricultural and pastoral history is evident through localized sites such as Campbell Number One Sheep Swan and Campbell Number Two Sheep Swan, which reflect the region's ranching heritage. Infrastructure is minimal, centered primarily on White Pine Co Road 3, which traverses the center of the quadrangle. The presence of Illipah Cr in the lower reaches further highlights the hydrological features that dictated settlement and land use patterns in this part of White Pine County.
