About this map

The Colorado River defines the border between Arizona and California in this arid landscape where the Palo Verde Valley and Cibola Valley meet. This survey shows the intricate water management systems essential to the region, including the C-28 Canal and the Outfall Drain situated west of the river. The terrain is marked by significant desert washes such as Crazy Woman Wash and Milpitas Wash, which cut through the lower elevations toward the river's path.

Evidence of historical land use is found at the Hart Mine site and along Hart Mine Rd, while the Trigo Mountains rise to the east and the Palo Verde Mountains to the west. The small settlement of Cibola sits near the Cornfield Nature Trail, reflecting the sparse human footprint in a territory dominated by the Great Colorado Valley. Local transit is represented by desert routes like Walters Camp Rd and Stallard Rd, connecting remote sites across the state line.
