2012 Map of Green Monster Mine

About this map

The Green Monster Mine stands as a primary landmark in this arid Clark County landscape, illustrating the industrial footprint within the Spring Mountains region. The terrain is defined by complex drainage patterns, with the primary channels of Lovell Wash and Potosi Wash carving through the desert floor towards the south. In the southwestern corner, the elevation of Black Butte provides a distinct geographic anchor. While the area is largely undeveloped, the presence of thoroughfares like Palrump Rd and Tuskegee St near the southern boundary indicates the encroachment of local infrastructure upon the traditional mining and desert lands. This survey captures a moment where industrial history and modern transit intersect in the Nevada high desert.
