2014 Map of Ireteba Peaks

About this map

Ireteba Peaks and the northern Eldorado Mountains dominate this high-desert terrain within the Mojave Desert. The landscape is defined by its arid hydrology, marked by scattered water sources such as Grasshopper Spring, Jonah Spring, and Wesselhoff Spring. A history of prospecting is evident in labels like the Francis Mining Claim Spring near the northern boundary, while the eastern edge of the quadrangle reaches into the Lake Mead National Recreation Area. Higher elevations are punctuated by Dupont Mtn and Copper Mtn, with access provided by local routes including Grandpa's Rd and Copper Hill Rd. This topographic study preserves the naming conventions of remote Clark County, documenting the specific springs and peaks essential for navigating this section of the Nevada desert.
