About this map

Lake Mead National Recreation Area dominates this landscape, where the waters of Lake Mead meet the arid expanses of the Mojave Desert. The map details the transition from the deep waters of Gregg Basin to the prominent landform of Grapevine Mesa. Along the shoreline, numerous inlets provide access and points of interest, including South Cove, Wagon Trail Bay, and Hualapai Bay, illustrating the complex geography of the reservoir's eastern reaches.

Inland, the terrain is defined by dramatic elevation changes, notably within Grapevine Canyon and around the remote Pearce Ferry Airport. The placement of Grapevine Spring highlights the critical presence of water sources in this dry environment. This survey captures the state of the recreation area as the boundary between Nevada and Arizona and the line separating Clark and Mohave Counties pass through the open water and desert scrub.
