About this map

White Horse Mountain and the Goshute Mountains dominate this high-desert landscape in eastern Elko County. The terrain is defined by a series of vital water sources tucked into the foothills, including White Horse Springs, Little White Horse Spring, and a sequence of numbered springs labeled Battle Spring Number One, Two, and Three. These water points have historically served as critical markers in an otherwise arid environment.

Transportation through the area is centered on the corridor of Alt 93, which cuts diagonally across Dolly Varden Flat. Industrial activity is evidenced by the presence of Kinsley Mountain Mine Rd, providing access to the mineral resources of the neighboring peaks. The map also highlights prominent local landmarks such as Sugar Loaf Peak, which stands as a clear navigational point for those traversing this segment of the Great Basin.
