1981 Map of Sheep Spring

USGS Topo · Published 1981

About this map

Lava Beds Creek winds through this arid expanse of Pershing County, Nevada, during a period of detailed mapping following field inspections in the mid-1970s. The landscape is defined by its drainage patterns and isolated water sources, most notably Sheep Spring, which serves as a vital focal point in an otherwise thirsty terrain. Economic activity in this corner of the state is anchored by the Garrett Mine, a landmark that speaks to the region's enduring mining history. This survey illustrates the sparse but critical human imprints upon the land, where townships like T 32 N and ranges such as R 28 E provide the only structural framework across the vast desert topography.
