2021 Map of Arrastra Mountain NE

About this map

The Poachie Range and Arrastra Mtn dominate this high-desert landscape at the boundary of Mohave and Yavapai Counties. This 2021 survey reveals a terrain defined by dramatic drainages and vital water sources, where Placeritas Cr and Peoples Cr cut through the arid soil. The map is a record of numerous named water points essential to the region's history, including Little Trough Spring, Johns Spring, and South Peoples Spring. Highway 93 carves a path through the northern sections, providing the primary modern corridor through the Mojave Desert floor. These geographic features, along with names like Negro Ben Spring and Sycamore Spring, offer a clear look at the persistent importance of water in this part of Arizona.
