About this map

Wells Peak serves as the central anchor for this portion of the Windermere Hills, a landscape defined by its isolated water sources. The map provides a detailed view of the high-desert terrain in Elko County, where historical land use is signaled by a network of named springs. These vital points, including Town Creek Spring and the family-named Quilici Spring, reveal the importance of reliable water in the Great Basin's ranching and migratory history. Surveyed sections and township lines like t39n r63e and t38n r64e organize the territory, while the northern flow of Cricket Cr and the presence of Summit Springs illustrate the natural drainage patterns that have historically dictated human and livestock movement through these hills.
