2018 Map of Pahrump

About this map

Pahrump Valley serves as a critical desert basin along the Nye and Clark County line, where the landscape is defined by its vital water sources. The importance of groundwater in this arid Mojave Desert environment is evidenced by the concentration of natural landmarks like Pahrump Springs, Ivanpah Springs, and Stump Springs. These sites have historically supported the area's growth from ranching roots into a modern desert community. Cultural and infrastructure development is visible through the presence of the Chief Tecopa Cem and Caas Airport. The local economy and transportation network are further illustrated by specialized thoroughfares such as Winery Rd and Wulfenstein Gravel Pit Rd, while the ephemeral Wheeler Wash drains the sloping terrain to the northeast, marking the intersection of natural hydrology and human settlement.
