About this map

Baragan Mountain dominates this portion of the Arizona desert, its contours rising sharply from the surrounding drainage basins. The landscape is defined by an intricate network of desert washes, including the Stone Cabin Gap Wash and Red Raven Wash, which flow toward the Hyder Valley to the south. This terrain illustrates the characteristic alluvial patterns of the region, where seasonal water flow has carved distinct paths such as Clanton Wash and Deadman Wash through the arid flats.

Transportation in this remote area is primarily limited to long, straight corridors like Palomas Harquahala Rd and Palomas Rd. These routes, alongside several section-line roads like N Avenue 73 E, provide the primary access to the vast ranching or mineral lands divided by the Public Land Survey System. The map preserves the specific survey boundaries of Townships 3, 4, and 5 South, marking a period of modern topographic record-keeping in Yuma County.
