2012 Map of Weaver Canyon

About this map

Spring Creek Mountain anchors this rugged section of the Nevada-Utah border, where the high desert landscape is defined by deep drainages and intermittent water sources. The map reveals a complex network of canyons and family-named landmarks, such as Felt Robison Canyon and Big Erickson Canyon, suggesting a history of seasonal grazing and ranching. Life in this arid corridor depends on vital points like Lower Sanford Spring, Crow Spring, and Studhorse Springs scattered among the South Mountains. Transportation is limited to functional routes such as Whiskey Rd and Rye Grass Rd, which follow the natural contours of the terrain. The presence of Weaver Creek and Fifteenmile Creek highlights the drainage patterns that have carved out notable landforms like Chokecherry Canyon and Jumbo Canyon.
