2011 Map of Alamo Dam

About this map

Alamo Dam stands as the central engineering feature of this desert landscape, creating the expansive Alamo Lake at the confluence of several seasonal drainages. This arid region in Mohave County is defined by its complex network of washes, including Ives Wash and Cunningham Wash, which dictate the local topography and drainage patterns. The map highlights the infrastructure developed to manage and access the water resources, with Alamo Dam Access Rd providing the primary route into the protected areas of Alamo Lake State Park. Remote and sparsely populated, the terrain is characterized by long, winding washes like Bullard Wash and Spenser Wash that cut through the landscape, illustrating the hydrology of the Bill Williams River basin.
