2014 Map of Arrow Canyon NW

About this map

The Las Vegas Range and the Arrow Canyon Range dominate this corner of the Nevada desert, where steep elevation changes are documented through precise contours. A single point of modern water infrastructure, the Perkins Number Two Reservoir, sits in the central basin between these high ridgelines. The landscape is marked by natural drainage features including Elbow Canyon in the northwest and Side Canyon in the southeast. Historical movement through this arid environment is represented by the Mormon Well Rd, which cuts through the northwestern corner. The map provides a look at the Public Land Survey System divisions, showing the junction of Townships 14 and 15 South, which remain largely undeveloped and defined by their natural topography.
