About this map

Hoover Dam stands as the focal point of this mid-century survey, anchoring the border between Nevada and Arizona. This map represents a critical period for the Lake Mead National Recreational Area, detailing the underwater topography of the reservoir through contours compiled from sediment studies. The landscape is defined by the sharp transition from the Colorado River corridor to the surrounding peaks, including Fortification Hill and Guardian Peak.
