1953 Map of Overton Beach
USGS Topo · Published 1955About this map
St. Thomas and Kaolin are recorded here just decades after the creation of the reservoir altered the Clark County landscape. This survey captures the submerged and shoreline geography of Lake Mead and its northern arms where the Virgin River and Muddy River meet. The map detail extends to the complex underwater contours, a result of sedimentation studies that track how the rising waters reshaped the valley.
