About this map

Buck Peak rises as a prominent landmark in the southwestern corner of this survey, surrounded by the arid expanses of the Lechuguilla Desert. The landscape is dominated by significant relief, with the Copper Mountains in the northwest and the Cabeza Prieta Mountains defining the southeastern reaches. This territory represents a classic desert basin and range topography, where reliable water sources are rare. The inclusion of Buck Peak Tank indicates a critical point for land management and survival in an area otherwise characterized by vast stretches of open terrain and sparse infrastructure. The presence of these mountain ranges and the intervening desert flats illustrates the primary geographic constraints of this part of Yuma County, providing essential context for researchers studying the natural boundaries and land use of the region.
