2015 Map of Ivanpah Lake

About this map

Primm sits as a distinct waypoint along the Interstate 15 corridor, marking the precise boundary where the Nevada California state line intersects the arid expanse of the Ivanpah Valley. This landscape is dominated by the vast dry bed of Ivanpah Lake, a stark geological feature that emphasizes the basin-and-range topography of the region. To the west, the foothills of the Clark Mountain Range rise sharply, cut by drainages like Antimony Gulch. The infrastructure here reflects a modern desert economy, centered on the commerce and thoroughfares of E Primm Blvd and Fashion Outlet Way. To the northeast, the terrain ascends toward McCullough Pass, providing a window into the transition between the high desert floor and the surrounding mountain heights within the Mojave Desert.
