2018 Map of Bobs Well

About this map

Bobs Well serves as a lone landmark in the arid expanse of La Paz County, situated at the northern edge of the Cactus Plain. The landscape is defined by the broad drainage of Osborne Wash, which cuts across the terrain near the junction of Shea Rd and the Swansea Mine Rd. These desert routes provide the primary access through a region characterized by section lines and sparse water resources. A significant modern engineering feature, the Central Arizona Project Aqueduct, traverses the northeastern corner of the area, illustrating the critical role of water infrastructure in this remote part of Arizona. The map captures the isolation of the western desert, where place names are few and tied closely to essential water sources and mining access roads.
