1969 Map of Delamar NW

USGS Topo · Published 1973

About this map

The steep eastern escarpment of the South Pahroc Range dominates the western half of this 1969 survey, giving way to the expansive dry landscape of Delamar Valley. The region's history with water and mining is evident through specialized infrastructure, notably Cyanide Reservoir, which suggests the chemical processing once common in this gold and silver mining district. On the floor of Delamar Flat, the drainage patterns of Delamar Wash and Cedar Wash illustrate the intermittent nature of water flow in this high desert environment. Strategic water points such as Chalk Reservoir and Powerline Reservoir are positioned across the alluvial fans and valley floor, marking essential landmarks for surveyors and travelers navigating this terrain long after the primary mining booms had subsided.
