1902 Map of Deep Creek

About this map

The Ord Mountains and the arid expanse of the Mohave Desert dominate this turn-of-the-century survey, capturing a landscape defined by dramatic shifts in elevation and sparse water sources. To the north, the transition from the mountains to the desert floor is marked by landmarks like Deadman Point and Fifteenmile Point, while the west is bounded by the course of the Mohave River. Early settlement and industry are anchored by isolated outposts such as Coxey Ranch and a Sawmill located deep within the high timber.
