Jean Pass (north)

Jean Pass (north) is one of two passes on the west and northwest of the Jean Dry Lake basin, an endorheic basin bordering Jean, Nevada.

Jean, Nevada is located on Interstate 15; the north pass lies on a water divide about 6 mi northeast of Jean, (a Las Vegas Wash Watershed source point). Jean Pass (south) is west of Jean Dry Lake, and is the pass between the Bird Spring Range's southeast foothills, and Sheep Mountain (Nevada), 4184 ft, on Jean's east border, and the southwest border of Jean Dry Lake.

Great Basin Divide
The Great Basin Divide traverses from the Spring Mountains, and south of the two passes, and Jean Dry Lake, between Roach Lake, further south, in the north section of the Ivanpah Valley, part of the Ivanpah-Pahrump Watershed.

History
The Old Spanish National Historic Trail went through the Jean Pass (north). To the south, the trail turned west, then northwest to Goodsprings at the south-southwest of the Bird Spring Range. The trail turned west just north of the Jean Pass (south).
