Boulder City serves as the northern anchor for this study of the arid transition where the Eldorado Mountains descend into the wide expanse of the Eldorado Valley. The landscape is defined by the dramatic relief of the mountains, which contain the eponymous Keyhole Canyon and reach toward the Mojave Desert to the south. This modern survey tracks the sophisticated management of the desert environment, noting isolated water sources like Water Plug Number Two Spring tucked within the mountain folds.
