Your relentless repetition of the Enclave Clause having something to do with nearby Lake Mead is pointless and it is irrelevant. There are no buildings on this property. It is designated as Open Range. There is no military installation there, it's scrub brush and cows. That is it. The approximation of Lake Mead is irrelevant... if it WAS relevant, then the BLM would be claiming Lake Mead as a reason for their appropriation of the land. THEY NEVER DID. They claimed the land was to be taken as a preserve for a turtle. So I repeat to you once again, as everyone else has also done ad nauseum, your point is irrelevant.
I know this is pointless arguing with "tax control," since they are simply going to cut and paste the Enclave Clause plus the Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo over and over again because that is what they are being paid to do. Good for them. BUT for those readers who are confused, just know this: 50 representatives from the 9 western states who are being treated as second-class citizens (aka, being treated as "territories" and not as "states") met last week to discuss how to get our lands back from the illegal & unconstitutional holding of the federal government. This process was started last year when concern regarding federal mismanagement of wild lands resulting in catastrophic wildfires that are destroying our wildernesses and resources reached a fever pitch. Now, after the Bundy saga, it has been dramatically brought to the forefront. If you are a resident of any of the western states, you should look into what is going on around you. You should be asking, "Why are states east of Colorado being treated differently from those west of? Why did they never receive their land held in trust while all the eastern & mid-western states did?" I recommend these videos as a primer on what is really going on and disregard this idiot "taxcontrol" who is a paid shill for someone.

At this point, taxcontrol, I am done responding to you. Have a nice life and seriously... you should look into a more honorable form of employment.
Interesting that you claim that they were not ceded to the US Government. Perhaps you missed reading this from the Nevada state constitution:
“Third. That the people inhabiting said territory do agree and declare, that they forever disclaim all right and title to the unappropriated public lands lying within said territory, and that the same shall be and remain at the sole and entire disposition of the United States....”
I have provided via two articles in the constitution, SCOTUS rulings, court filings with regards to Bundy’s trespass and even the constitution of the state of Nevada documentation of the facts. Your response has been and continues to be to evade the facts, resort to name calling and repeating your undocumented personal opinions.
