2014 Map of Spirit Mountain NE

About this map

Lake Mohave and the high peaks of the Black Mountains dominate this 2014 survey along the border of Clark County, Nevada, and Mohave County, Arizona. Large portions of the landscape fall within the Lake Mead National Recreation Area, protecting the dramatic transition from the waters of the Colorado River system to the surrounding desert terrain. The map captures the distinct topography of the East Cottonwood Basin and the lower-lying Cottonwood Valley, providing a clear view of the arid environment before modern development significantly altered these remote areas. While largely undeveloped, the presence of Cottonwood Rd indicates the primary terrestrial access route through this section of the Mojave Desert, connecting the river basin to the rugged interior highlands.
