1951 Map of Blythe NE

USGS Topo · Published 1956

About this map

The Big Maria Mountains dominate the northern landscape of this survey, giving way to the engineered agricultural plains of the Palo Verde Valley. Central to the region's development is the Palo Verde Intake and an extensive irrigation network, including the Main Canal, Duplicate Canal, and numerous numbered siphons and drains that transformed the desert into productive land. The human history of the era is marked by the Fertilla (Ruins), suggesting an earlier settlement attempt near the modern irrigation infrastructure.
