Old Spanish Trail Rd cuts through the desert landscape, following a historic travel corridor between the Dry Lake Range and the Muddy Mountains. This 2021 survey of the Mojave Desert reveals a land defined by its drainage patterns, most notably the seasonal courses of California Wash and Gypsum Wash. The presence of the Union Pacific RR in the southwestern corner demonstrates the continued importance of the rail corridor for transcontinental transit through this part of Clark County.
