2015 Map of Skeleton Hills
USGS Topo · Published 2015About this map
Skeleton Hills rise from the northern reaches of the Mojave Desert in this portion of Nye County. The landscape is defined by the ephemeral drainage of Rock Valley Wash, which cuts across the arid basin between isolated ridges. This 2015 survey shows a remote area where the natural topography is segmented primarily by the lines of the Public Land Survey System, including t16s r50e and t15s r51e. While largely undeveloped, the terrain is traversed by several desert tracks, such as Cook Rd, Mecca Rd E, and Invite Rd, which provide the only modern markers of navigation through the alluvial fans and rocky outcrops of this high-desert environment.
