1973 Map of Quartz Peak SW

USGS Topo · Published 1981

About this map

Spotted Range peaks and desert basins dominate this 1970s landscape, reflecting the dual management of southern Nevada’s interior by military and conservation agencies. The terrain is split between the Nellis Air Force Range, a massive restricted testing area, and the Desert National Wildlife Range, which preserves the habitat of the region's diverse flora and fauna. To the east, the broad expanse of the Indian Springs Valley provides a striking contrast to the high, ridged topography. Geopolitical markers include the Lincoln Co Clark Co line and an Indefinite Boundary running through the northern sector, indicating the complexities of surveying this arid, high-elevation environment before modern GPS refinement.
