About this map

Coyote Spring Valley defines the landscape of this Lincoln County region, where seasonal watercourses and essential desert springs dictate the patterns of human and animal movement. The drainage of Pahranagat Wash cuts through the center of the sheet, joined by Kane Springs Wash as they navigate the arid terrain. These hydrologic features are the lifeblood of the area, supporting established water points such as Coyote Spring, Lamb Spring, and Granger Spring.

Transportation through this high-desert environment follows the historical and functional paths of Kane Springs Rd and the corridor of U.S. Route 93. The alignment of these routes alongside the washes highlights how the local topography has historically funneled travel through the valley. This survey provides a precise look at the modern land divisions and watershed characteristics of this sparsely populated part of Nevada.
