About this map

The Las Vegas Range and the Arrow Canyon Range converge in this high-desert region of Clark County, creating a dramatic landscape of steep ridges and desert washes. The western portion of the map is dominated by the Desert National Wildlife Range, defined here by an Indefinite Boundary through the rugged peaks. This 1980s survey captures a wilderness largely untouched by development, where human activity is limited to a single Trans Line cutting north-to-south and a solitary Gravel Pit near the northern edge. Evidence of backcountry navigation is visible through a network of 4wd tracks and trails navigating the complex topography near Elbow Canyon, reflecting the area's role as a remote refuge and a challenging environment for early surveyors and contemporary explorers alike.
