About this map

Stanwix sits at a geographic crossroads in the Arizona desert, marking the border between Maricopa and Yuma counties. This arid landscape is defined by the broad expanse of Stanwix Flats and the drainage of Tenmile Wash, which cuts across the western portion of the quadrangle. The transportation network is the primary human imprint on the land, with the interstate corridor and its accompanying N Frontage Rd providing the central axis for travel through the region. While the desert terrain appears largely open, the grid of the Public Land Survey System reveals the structured division of townships such as t7s r11w and t6s r10w. To the northwest, the name Park Valley denotes a distinct area of the flatlands, illustrating the localized naming conventions used by early travelers and surveyors in this corner of the Sonoran Desert.
