About this map

The Las Vegas Range dominates this mid-1980s landscape, providing a high-relief look at the basin-and-range geology north of the Las Vegas valley. As a provisional edition, this survey documents the rugged interior of the Desert National Wildlife Range, where few roads penetrate the complex terrain. Evidence of human activity is limited to scattered mining Prospects, indicating the region’s history of exploration in an otherwise protected desert wilderness. The map is particularly useful for visualizing the steep elevation gradients and landforms of Clark County before the significant urban expansion of the following decades reached further into the surrounding desert floor.
