2018 Map of Arrow Canyon SW

About this map

Dry Lake sits at the center of this 2018 survey, marking a significant hydrologic feature in the arid Mojave Desert terrain. The map details the transition from the broad, flat expanse of Hidden Valley into the more complex topography of the Arrow Canyon Range along the eastern edge. This area of Clark County is defined by its dramatic elevation changes and large basins, typical of the basin and range geology. Transport through this stretch is dominated by a primary roadway cutting north-south through the center of the sheet, providing access between the high ground and the valley floor. To the southeast, the terrain descends toward Dry Lake Valley, highlighting the characteristic drainage patterns of the region's intermittent water systems.
