1973 Map of Indian Springs NW

USGS Topo · Published 1976

About this map

Nellis Air Force Range dominates this corner of Clark County, defining a landscape utilized for military training and conservation in the early 1970s. The map illustrates a strictly controlled territory where the high terrain of the Spotted Range drops off into the broad expanse of Desert Valley. This arid basin transitions into the Indian Springs Valley (Depression), a low-lying area punctuated by numerous targets and lookout towers associated with the range's operations. Portions of the land are also designated as a National Wildlife Refuge, showcasing the dual-purpose management of this high-desert environment. Remnants of human activity are minimal, represented by an isolated Landing Strip and a rugged Jeep Tr that provide the only ground access through the restricted Military Reservation Boundary.
