National Park Service. 1979. Preliminary Wilderness proposal: Lake Mead National Recreation Area Arizona-Nevada. Department of the Interior, National Park Service. Denver
Twenty-five units totaling 418,655 acres within Lake Mead National Recreation Area have been found suitable for preservation as wilderness and are proposed for inclusion in the National Wilderness preservation system. Other areas totaling 262,125 acres including state, county, and private inholdings; lands encumbered by outstanding rights and reservations; and one parcel encumbered by an outstanding mineral lease are proposed for potential wilderness additions. When adverse uses are eliminated, potential wilderness additions will automatically become wilderness.
