1987 Map of Lake Mead

USGS Topo · Published 1988

About this map

Valley of Fire State Park and the expansive Lake Mead National Recreation Area dominate this desert landscape, where the Colorado River was transformed into a massive reservoir system. This late-1980s data highlights the intricate shoreline from Las Vegas Bay to the narrow reaches of Iceberg Canyon and Virgin Canyon. The map details the transition from the growing urban edges of Henderson and Boulder City to the stark, remote terrain of the Muddy Mountains and Gale Hills.
