1970 Map of Davis Dam SE

About this map

The Fort Mojave Indian Reservation and the riverfront communities of Bullhead City and Riviera define this reach of the Colorado River at the dawn of the 1970s. This survey records the significant transition of the landscape from its historic roots toward modern residential development, most notably where the purple-tinted urban extensions of the 1980s revision overlay the older grid. Cultural heritage remains visible at the Fort Mojave (Site) and the Hardyville Mill (Ruins) further north along the river bank. To the east, the terrain rises sharply toward Black Mountain, dissected by drainage systems like Montana Wash and Silver Creek. Local institutions such as Mohave High Sch and the Chaparral Golf Course are situated near the growing residential corridor of Baseline Road and Lakeside Drive.
