2014 Map of Dry Lake NW

About this map

The Arrow Canyon Range dominates the central topography of this Clark County landscape, where the shifting elevations of the Mojave Desert transition into the low-lying Dry Lake Valley. The eastern edge of the quadrangle is defined by the significant footprint of Dry Lake, a prominent ephemeral feature that anchors the surrounding basin. Modern infrastructure has begun to mark this arid corridor, as seen in the development of Apex Power Pky and Belcher Blvd. These routes indicate the expansion of utilities and access into the valley, providing a clear view of how land management and power distribution networks are integrated into the desert environment. The grid of the Public Land Survey System overlaying these natural features highlights the precise township and range divisions that govern this section of southern Nevada.
