2014 Map of Overton NE

About this map

The Virgin River carves a critical path through this arid portion of the Mojave Desert, shaping the fertile bottomlands of the Virgin Valley. This 2014 survey reveals the stark transition from the high, flat expanse of the Mormon Mesa down to the complex drainage networks that feed the river system. One such drainage, Halfway Wash, meanders across the northern and central sections of the quadrangle before meeting the main river channel. Connectivity in this remote corner of Nevada is defined by established routes like Gold Butte Rd and Carp Elgin Rd, which provide access through the desert terrain and across the township and range boundaries that section the land for public use and management.
