About this map

Wagon Springs and Borges Spring offer essential water points in this arid expanse of Elko County, where the high desert meets the southern reaches of the Ichabod Range. The landscape is defined by the headwaters of several drainage systems, including the westward-flowing Owyhee River and the complex network of the W Fork Beaver Cr and Beaver Cr to the east. These waterways carve through the high plateaus, most notably around Table Mtn, which dominates the northwestern portion of the map.

Modern access is facilitated by a series of graded routes such as Eco Road 746 and Eco Rd, which traverse the high-elevation basins. The map illustrates the contemporary configuration of the Public Land Survey System across Townships 42 and 43 North, showing how ranching and resource management rely on the intermittent flow of Hot Cr and Hay-Meadow Cr in a region where water sources dictate both natural movement and human activity.
