About this map

The Hualapai Indian Reservation dominates the northern reaches of this high-desert landscape, where the land rises toward the prominent Cherokee Point. This 1980 survey captures a territory defined by the logistical needs of cattle ranching and heavy transit, with the Atchison Topeka and Santa Fe railroad cutting across the northwestern corner alongside Truxton Wash. The map reveals a sophisticated network of water management for livestock, documented through numerous named catchments such as North Blye Tank, South Blye Tank, and End Water Corral. Deep erosional features like Rock Canyon and Blue Tank Canyon score the terrain, illustrating the drainage patterns that feed into Cherokee Wash. This document provides an essential record of land use and water infrastructure within Mohave County at the start of the 1980s.
