About this map

Piute Wash dominates this arid landscape of southern Clark County, tracking through the desert toward the southeast. This 2012 survey documents a quiet expanse defined by sparse water sources and a singular piece of modern infrastructure: Loran Station Rd. The presence of several named springs, including Old Roman Spring and Battle Axe Spring, suggests the critical importance of these water points for livestock or local travel in an otherwise dry basin. To the northeast, the terrain is marked by the drainage of Nellis Wash, while Yellowstone Spring and New Spring appear as localized landmarks. The map illustrates a transitional desert environment where the natural drainage patterns of Piute Wash dictate the movement and utility of the land.
