1970 Map of Buck Mountains NE

USGS Topo · Published 1982

About this map

Dutch Flat dominates the eastern half of this Mohave County landscape, where the wide, arid expanse meets the rising slopes of the Buck Mountains to the west. Surveyed in 1970, the map illustrates a remote part of Arizona defined by seasonal drainage and ranching infrastructure. A primary landmark of interest is the uniquely named Shot Up Well, situated at the intersection of mountain runoff and the flatlands. Drainage patterns such as Cow Creek and Buck Mountain Wash carve through the terrain, indicating the flow of water during infrequent desert rains. Human presence in the region is marked by utility and transport networks, including a long Pipeline segment, the Dutch Flat Road, and various Jeep Trails that provided essential access for land management and early modern exploration in this sparsely populated desert basin.
