2014 Map of Bitter Spring
USGS Topo · Published 2014About this map
Bitter Spring and the surrounding drainage of Echo Wash define this desert landscape within the Lake Mead National Recreation Area. The topography is dominated by dramatic ridges and basins, including the high ground of West Longwell Ridge and East Longwell Ridge which overlook the broad Bitter Spring Valley. This area represents a corner of the Mojave Desert where the convergence of ephemeral washes and distinct geological features like the White Basin and Echo Hills shaped early travel and resource management in Clark County.
