1980 Map of Dike Tank

About this map

The Hualapai Indian Reservation defines this high-desert plateau landscape, where the seasonal waters of Albers Wash and a network of livestock tanks support life in an otherwise arid environment. This 1980 survey reveals a land managed for ranching and resource conservation, marked by remote water sources like Rose Tank, Dike Tank, and the southwestern Hog Ranch Tank. The mapping of small Ruins and scattered Fence lines provides a tangible record of human activity and property management across the Hualapai Indian Reservation Boundary. The terrain is characterized by intricate contouring that suggests the drainage patterns of the high plateau before the runoff reaches larger canyon systems.
