2014 Map of Bobs Well

About this map

Cactus Plain dominates this portion of La Paz County, showing the arid expanse of western Arizona as it appeared in the early 21st century. The map centers on a landscape of desert terrain and alluvial features, most notably Osborne Wash, which cuts across the northern reaches near the site of Bobs Well. Transportation through this remote section of the Sonoran Desert is facilitated by unpaved tracks such as Shea Rd and Swansea Mine Rd, reflecting the historical mining and ranching routes that have long served the region. In the southeast corner, the edge of the Bouse settlement is visible, while the massive infrastructure of the Central Arizona Project Aqueduct traverses the northeastern corner, highlighting the modern engineering required to move water across this dry environment.
