1970 Map of Buck Mountains NE

About this map

Dutch Flat dominates this 1970 Mohave County landscape, a broad desert expanse framed by the Buck Mountains to the west. The map records an arid environment where water management and infrastructure are paramount, evidenced by the presence of a Pipeline cutting through the terrain and the uniquely named Shot Up Well. The network of travel through this remote stretch of Arizona is defined by the Dutch Flat Road and various jeep trails, which cross seasonal drainage systems like Cow Creek and Buck Mountain Wash. A lone Corral and the survey point Dutch 1940 provide small but significant markers of human activity and surveying history in a region primarily shaped by its topography. This survey was photogrammetrically mapped in 1969 and field checked in 1970, capturing the infrastructure of the high desert before further modern development.
