2014 Map of Parker Butte

About this map

Lux stands at the southwestern edge of this high-desert landscape, situated where the broad expanse of Mason Valley begins its transition into the rising slopes of the Desert Mountains. The Walker River snakes through the central terrain, providing a vital riparian corridor in an otherwise arid environment characterized by prominent landmarks like Parker Butte. Water remains the defining factor of local settlement and geography here, evidenced by the presence of Black Point Spring tucked into the foothills. The layout of the land is further defined by local thoroughfares such as Julian Ln and Powerline Rd, which trace the valley floor and connect the small settlement of Lux to the surrounding sagebrush and mountain terrain.
