Lake Mead National Recreation Area dominates this desert landscape, where the waters of Lake Mead fill the deep canyons of the Colorado River system. The map reveals a complex shoreline of named coves and basins, including Temple Basin and Virgin Canyon, which straddle the border between Nevada and Arizona. The topography is defined by dramatic landforms such as Napoleon's Tomb, The Campanile, and the namesake monolith The Temple.
