1985 Map of Mesquite NE

About this map

Terry Benches and Lone Mesa define the high ground of this desert landscape along the border of Nevada and Arizona. Recorded in the mid-1980s, the terrain is characterized by a complex network of seasonal drainage systems, including the prominent Sand Hollow Wash and Town Wash. The map reveals the precise intersection of Lincoln County and Mohave County, where the state lines meet amidst isolated landmarks like Tule Spring and the distinctive Castle Cliff. This survey captures the region's topographical transition toward Big Bend Wash and Coon Creek in the east, providing a detailed look at the land's natural contours and water channels before more recent development altered the character of these remote borderlands.
