2015 Map of Bullfrog Mountain

About this map

Death Valley National Park occupies the central portion of this Nye County landscape, where the high desert terrain transitions between several distinct geological basins. The northern reaches are dominated by the wide expanse of Sarcobatus Flat, while the southern terrain falls away into the Amargosa Desert and the northern fringes of the Mojave Desert. This area is defined by the significant elevations of the Bullfrog Hills, including the prominent summit of Bullfrog Mtn. The map provides a contemporary look at the protected federal lands and the complex topography of this arid region, illustrating the stark natural boundaries between the valley floor and the surrounding mountain ranges at the edge of the Nevada-California border.
