1958 Map of Boulder City SW

USGS Topo · Published 1959

About this map

Eldorado Valley dominates the western portion of this 1958 survey, defined by the prominent Dry Lake basin. This arid landscape illustrates a mid-century infrastructure corridor, where a major Pipeline and several roads, including route 95, slice across the desert floor toward distant hubs. To the east, the terrain rises sharply into the Eldorado Mountains, where the intricate contour work reveals a complex system of ridges and canyons. Within these slopes, isolated mining activity is recorded, marked by Shafts and a single Shaft located near the base of the peaks. The map provides a precise look at the geological and industrial character of this corner of Clark County before extensive modern development, capturing a transition between the flat alkaline wash and the high desert peaks like Bump.
