2021 Map of Senator Mountain NW

About this map

Detrital Valley dominates this arid landscape within the Lake Mead National Recreation Area, where drainage systems carve through the northwestern Mojave Desert. The map details the transition from the broad alluvial floor of Detrital Wash to the rising elevations of the White Hills and Squaw Peak. This modern 2021 survey serves as a definitive record of the desert's shifting topography and current infrastructure, including the reach of Temple Bar Rd and Co Hwy 143. The layout reflects the vast, undeveloped nature of Mohave County's backcountry, revealing how natural drainage patterns and high peaks dictate the few access routes through this protected federal land.
