Buffalo Valley Hot Springs sits at the northern edge of this high-desert landscape, where the wide floor of Buffalo Valley meets the rising slopes of the Fish Creek Mountains. The area is defined by its geothermal activity and stark topographic contrasts, including the prominent peak of Pinnacle Mtn and the winding course of Wild Range Canyon. Water is scarce here, represented by the ephemeral Daisy Cr and the specialized hydrology of the hot springs. Human activity is centered on rugged transport routes like Buffalo Valley Rd and Co Rd 121, which cross the boundary between Pershing and Lander counties. This 2018 survey provides a clear view of the public land survey system grid as it overlays the basin and range province.
