2014 Map of Twin Springs Slough

About this map

Hot Creek Valley and the Reveille Valley dominate this Great Basin landscape, situated between the high ground of the Pancake Range and the Reveille Range. The terrain is defined by the drainage of Twin Springs Slough, which receives seasonal flow from Hot Cr and several vital water sources including Twin Springs and Cane Spring. This 2014 survey documents a classic high-desert basin-and-range environment where water access dictates the geography of the land. In the southern portion of the map, the distinctive Goblin Knobs rise near the confluence of the valley floors, while Echo Canyon cuts through the eastern ridges. The map meticulously records the Public Land Survey System grid, including boundaries for t4n r51e and t4n r52e, reflecting the cadastral framework of this part of Nye County.
