2015 Map of Stump Spring

About this map

Stump Spring serves as a vital water source in this arid expanse where the Mojave Desert transitions through the Pahrump Valley, Mesquite Valley, and Sandy Valley. The landscape is defined by the striking diagonal of the Nevada California state line, which cuts through complex county boundaries involving Nye, Clark, and Inyo. This survey documents a structured grid of residential streets on the western edge, including E Charleston Ln and E Crystal Rd, indicating localized development within the desert environment. Farther east, the terrain opens into broad alluvial plains crossed by functional routes like Tecopa Rd and Two Hk Rd. The mapping of these specific desert basins and named springs reflects the critical importance of reliable water and transportation corridors in the high desert of the early twenty-first century.
