2018 Map of Wheatgrass Spring

About this map

The North Pahroc Range and the Pahroc Range dominate this high-desert landscape in Lincoln County, Nevada, where water sources dictated the movement of both people and livestock. Topography is defined by the steep slopes and ridges of these ranges, falling away into the broad expanse of Dry Lake Valley to the east. Critical water points like Wheatgrass Spring, Pace Spring, and Rattlesnake Spring are the primary landmarks in this arid environment, connected by the seasonal drainage of Wheatgrass Wash. This 2018 survey serves as a modern record of the public land survey system, illustrating the township and range grid (including t1s r63e and t2s r63e) as it overlays a terrain that remains largely undeveloped and defined by its natural hydrology.
