1968 Map of Austin Peak

USGS Topo · Published 1985

About this map

The Aquarius Mountains define this high-elevation landscape in Mohave County, where the topography transitions between peaks like Austin Peak and Snow Mountain into significant depressions such as Cedar Basin and Knight Basin. The area is characterized by a high density of watering points, suggesting a reliance on dispersed water sources for local ranching or survival in the arid environment. These include developed points like Dripping Springs Well and Misery Well, alongside descriptively named features like Blue Mud Spring and Blackjack Spring. Evidence of early education or localized settlement is found at Schoolhouse Spring on the eastern slopes. A network of jeep trails provides the primary means of traversal through the complex drainage systems of Knight Creek and Divide Canyon, reflecting the land's remote and utilitarian character during the late 1960s.
