2014 Map of Searchlight

About this map

Searchlight serves as the central hub in this Southern Nevada landscape, where the high desert terrain of the Mojave Desert meets the northern reaches of the Piute Valley. The settlement is defined by a grid of local streets like E Addition St and E Encinatas St, with the Searchlight Airport and Old Airport Rd extending to the south. Water sources, vital in this arid environment, are marked by Dipping Vat Spring and Whisker Spring at higher elevations near Doherty Mtn. The infrastructure of the early 21st century is evident through prominent utilities like the Gas Pipeline Rd and the S Gas Pipeline which cut across the desert floor. To the west, the route of the Barnwell & Searchlight follows the natural draws, while the local geography is punctuated by distinct landmarks such as Duplex Hill.
