About this map

Nelsons Landing sits along the western shore of Lake Mohave, marking a point of human activity where the desert meets the managed waters of the Colorado River. This late-1950s survey documents a landscape defined by industrial history and recreation, situated within the Lake Mohave National Recreation Area. Evidence of extraction is scattered across the Nevada side of the river, with prospects, a shaft, and a tunnel located near Capital Camp, suggesting the area's legacy of mining.
