1892 Map of Camp Mohave

USGS Topo · Published 1905

About this map

Camp Mohave and its adjacent U.S. Military Reservation anchor the southern reaches of the Colorado River on this late 19th-century survey. The landscape is defined by the stark transition from the Sacramento Valley to the water-starved Detrital Valley, with the river serving as the primary corridor for transportation and life. Settled mining outposts like Chloride, Mineral Park, and New London are clustered in the Cerbat range, while the Atlantic and Pacific Railroad provides a vital link to the burgeoning town of Kingman. Evidence of the region’s reliance on rare water sources is everywhere, from the Eldorado Ferry crossing at Black Canyon to the dozens of named desert springs like Beale Spring and Coyote Holes that sustained early travelers and prospectors.
