1984 Map of Valley of Fire West

About this map

Valley of Fire State Park centers this 1984 survey, revealing a landscape defined by significant geologic formations and early recreational development in Clark County. Notable landmarks such as Atlatl Rock, Beehive Rock, and the Fire Alcove indicate the area's importance for both natural history and prehistoric significance. The topography is anchored by the North Muddy Mountains to the west and the Muddy Mountains to the south, with drainage provided by the Valley of Fire Wash, Overton Wash, and the South Fork. While much of the land is preserved, scattered Prospects suggest historical mineral exploration. Established recreation sites, including Mouses Tank Picnic Area, Seven Sisters Picnic Area, and Sunrise Picnic Area, mark the footprint of tourism and public access during the mid-1980s.
