About this map

The Gale Hills anchor the southern landscape of this Clark County region, as documented in a mid-1980s Usgs provisional study. The terrain is defined by its drainage patterns and prominent uplands, with the Dry Lake Range rising to the northwest and the Muddy Mountains dominating the eastern edge of the quadrangle. Significant desert drainage is captured here through California Wash and Gypsum Wash, which carve through the arid topography. This era of mapping focused on detailed elevation and manuscript drawings, providing a technical look at the landforms between the ranges before later-century shifts in the surrounding desert basin.
