About this map

Tin Springs Mtn and the southern reaches of the Kern Mountains dominate this high-desert borderland where Nevada meets Utah. The landscape is defined by its intermittent water sources and drainage patterns, including Sulphur Wash to the north and the expansive Indian George Wash to the south. The presence of Sulphur Spring and Tin Spring suggests critical water points in an otherwise arid environment, essential for the ranching and prospecting history of White Pine Co.

Transport through this remote terrain is limited to unpaved routes like Sulphur Spring Rd and Blue View Rd, which navigate the various township and range divisions. The map captures the meeting of three counties—White Pine in Nevada and Juab and Millard in Utah—along a jagged topographical boundary. These features, along with Tungstonia Wash, trace the legacy of early 20th-century mining and land management in the Great Basin.
