1984 Map of Charleston Peak NE

About this map

Desert View Natural Environment Area dominates this high-altitude landscape in Clark County, where the Spring Mountains terrain transitions through steep relief. This 1984 provisional survey illustrates a rugged topography defined by the drainage systems of Lee Canyon and Deer Creek. The map records specific land use and environmental management patterns from the early 1980s, including a localized Barrow Pit near the eastern margin. The intricate contour work reflects the specialized mapping efforts of the U.S. Geological Survey to document this protected natural environment, providing a technical baseline for the area just before significant regional growth began in the surrounding Nevada desert.
