1983 Map of Hiller Mountains

USGS Topo · Published 1984

About this map

The Hiller Mountains rise sharply above the southern reaches of Lake Mead, defining a rugged desert landscape along the border of Nevada and Arizona in the early 1980s. This survey captures the intricate shoreline of the Lake Mead National Recreation Area as the water reaches into Virgin Canyon and various inlets like Gold Cross Bay and Reef Bay. The terrain is marked by remnants of early 20th-century extraction, with several named operations including the Jumbo Mine, Eureka Mine, and the Joker Mine, the latter featuring its own Landing Strip. Away from the water, the topography is punctuated by Gregg Peak and Powell Mountain, while numerous prospects and 4WD tracks suggest a history of prospecting and remote exploration in this transition zone between the Colorado River corridor and the high desert peaks.
