Henderson (McCullough Range area)

The coordinates for this listing land roughly six miles southwest of downtown Henderson, Nevada, in the McCullough Range/Eldorado Valley area of Clark County — not inside the city itself. That's consistent with how rockhounding sources talk about this area: Henderson is named as a jumping-off point for jasper hunting, alongside the nearby Muddy Mountains, in the broader Las Vegas Valley collecting scene [1]. Chalcedony and onyx are also part of the general regional picture — purple/blue chalcedony is documented at nearby Valley of Fire State Park, and gemstone-quality chalcedony deposits are a known Nevada commodity more broadly [1]. What's not established is a specific named site, mine, or wash right at this pin — this reads as a general BLM public-land area near Henderson rather than one mapped collecting spot. Treat it as a starting point for a McCullough Range/Eldorado Valley trip, not a precise destination.

This point sits in the McCullough Range/Eldorado Valley area southwest of Henderson, Clark County, reached via US-95/NV-165 toward Boulder City or forest/BLM roads off that corridor. No specific trailhead or wash name is confirmed for this exact coordinate — UNVERIFIED beyond the general district.

General-area inference: BLM desert surface collecting — walking washes and pediment gravels for float material, hand tools only. No digging or mechanized equipment. Best in cooler months (fall through spring) given the low-desert heat around Henderson and Boulder City.

This area is presumed BLM land managed by the Las Vegas Field Office, though land status at this precise coordinate is UNVERIFIED. BLM's standard personal-use rockhounding rule allows hand collecting of common rocks, minerals, and semiprecious gemstones without a permit, generally up to 25 pounds per day and 250 pounds per year, using hand tools only — see BLM's national rockhounding page [2]. Confirm current field-office-specific rules before you go, and stay off any active mining claims or private inholdings in the area.
