1959 Map of Cross Roads

USGS Topo · Published 1970

About this map

The Colorado River serves as the central artery and political boundary for this desert landscape, dividing the Whipple Mountains to the northwest from the Buckskin Mountains to the southeast. At the heart of the quadrangle lies Cross Roads, a settlement situated near the riverbanks and the expansive Empire Flat. This mid-century survey reveals a corridor defined by intense mineral exploration and early regional transport, as evidenced by a network of Jeep Trails connecting scattered desert outposts.
