2014 Map of Tule Dam Spring

About this map

Diamond Valley and its high-desert water sources define this region of Eureka County. The landscape is marked by the transition between mountainous terrain and the broad valley floor, where crucial water points like Tule Dam Spring and Sulphur Spring appear as vital landmarks in an arid environment. Transportation through the area is dictated by the natural topography, with Mulligan Gap and Tyrone Gap providing essential passage through the ridges. To the south, Garden Pass Cr flows toward the lowlands near the junction of Sulfur Thompson Rd and Whistler Rd. These roads and natural passes illustrate the historical movement patterns of early ranchers and travelers navigating the Great Basin, where access to springs like these was a matter of survival.
