1972 Map of La Madre Mtn

USGS Topo · Published 1986

About this map

La Madre Mountain dominates this portion of the Clark County desert, where the transition from high ridgelines to alluvial basins is marked by complex geology and early human utility. In the early 1970s, the landscape featured a network of water sources vital for both wildlife and early travelers, including White Rock Spring, Ash Creek Spring, and Red Spring. The presence of a Sandstone Quarry near the Calico Hills indicates the area's value for building materials, while a Prospect further north hints at smaller-scale mineral exploration.
