1971 Map of Bat Cave

USGS Topo · Published 1973

About this map

The Hualapai Indian Reservation occupies the southern portion of this landscape, where the high desert terrain drops precipitously toward the Colorado River. This 1971 survey captures a period when the river was already altered by downstream management, forming the eastern reaches of Lake Mead within the Lake Mead National Recreational Area. The topography is dominated by the massive vertical relief of the Upper Grand Wash Cliffs and the wide, arid expanse of the Sanup Plateau. A small Landing Strip and the Bat Cave Towers provide rare evidence of human infrastructure in this remote corridor. Notable drainage features like Tincanebits Canyon carve through the plateau, while isolated water sources such as Granite Tank mark the challenging environment of the Arizona interior.
