Henderson and the southernmost reaches of the Las Vegas Valley are shown here as urban expansion meets the arid terrain of the Mojave Desert. The map documents a complex transition from high-density residential development in the north to industrial and quarrying operations further south. Heavy machinery and earth-moving activities are evident at Alden Quarries, situated near the small settlement of Sloan. This 2018 survey illustrates how major transportation corridors and the Henderson Executive Airport anchor the local economy, while prominent geographic markers like Center Mtn define the horizon. The street grid, featuring names such as W Cactus Ave and S Rainbow Blvd, pushes right to the edge of the desert, where development gives way to open land managed under various Public Land Survey System townships including t23s r60e.
