Arrow Canyon Range
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Arrow Canyon Range is a small yet stunning mountain range that runs south to north in Clark County, Nevada. Its length is approximately 25 miles at a latitude 36˚35' - 36˚47', and its width is roughly 7 miles at a longitude of 114˚54' - 114˚47'. The base elevation is 3,000 ft, and it rises to 4,953 ft at its peak. It runs parallel to Highway 93, where the western front is easily viewed along the entire length.
Like many mountain ranges in southern Nevada, it has the distinctive bare gray limestone formations common in the region. The dark band towards the upper third is tilted and broken, showing the intense geologic activity from the past.
