2021 Map of Tin Springs Mountain

About this map

The Kern Mountains dominate the high-elevation terrain along the Nevada-Utah border, creating a complex network of drainage basins and ridges in White Pine County. This high-desert landscape is defined by its water sources, including the isolated Sulphur Spring and Tin Spring, which are critical landmarks in this arid environment. The map shows the topography surrounding Tin Springs Mtn, where numerous washes like Sulphur Wash and Indian-George Wash descend toward the valleys. These seasonal waterways, including the descriptively named Tungstonia Wash and Pleasant Valley Draw, dictate the path of local infrastructure. Transportation through this remote borderland is limited to unpaved routes such as Pleasant Valley Rd and Blue View Rd, which navigate the foothills and connect the scattered springs and mountain passes across the state line.
