1950 Map of Davis Dam

USGS Topo · Published 1955

About this map

The Colorado River serves as the central artery for this mid-century survey, dividing the Black Mountains of Arizona from the desert floor of Nevada and California. The landscape is in the midst of a massive transition following the 1950 completion of Davis Dam, which began the creation of Lake Mohave. While new infrastructure like Bullhead City and Mikes Camp appears on the eastern bank, the map preserves the locations of earlier frontier history, including the Hardyville (Site) and the Fort Mohave (Ruins) located within the Fort Mohave Indian Reservation.
