1996 Map of Christmas Pass

USGS Topo · Published 2000

About this map

The Cabeza Prieta Mountains and the Sierra Pinta dominate this high-desert landscape in Yuma County, illustrating the transition between military and conservation lands during the late 1990s. The map clearly delineates the Wilderness Boundary separating the Barry M Goldwater Air Force Range from the Cabeza Prieta National Wildlife Refuge. This administrative division overlays a terrain defined by arid drainage systems like Smoke Tree Wash, Tule Wash, and Mohawk Wash. Evidence of human activity is scarce but significant, centered on the Christmas Pass transit point and isolated water sources such as North Pinta Tank and Senita Tank. Near the southern end of the Drift Hills, a labeled Prospect suggests the region's history of mineral exploration within this otherwise protected desert expanse.
