The southern end of the Eldorado Mountains which form the eastern margin of Eldorado Valley lies just to the northeast of Searchlight.〔''Nelson, Nevada,'' 15 Minute Topographic Quadrangle, USGS, 1958〕〔''Searchlight, Nevada–California,'' 15 Minute Topographic Quadrangle, USGS, 1959〕 U.S. Route 95 runs south through Eldorado Valley to the east of the Highlands to Searchlight.
