About this map

Davis Dam anchors this mid-century landscape along the Colorado River, illustrating the river's transformation within the Lake Mead National Recreational Area. The map reveals a layering of history where burgeoning settlements like Bullhead City and infrastructure such as the Air Strip and Tristate area sit adjacent to significant archaeological and historical sites. Notable among these are the Fort Mohave (Ruins), the Mohave City (Site), and the Hardyville (Site), marking the early river ports and military outposts that predated the twentieth-century hydroelectric projects.
