2011 Map of Dutch Flat NW

About this map

Seventeen Mile Ranch stands as a focal point of human habitation in this arid landscape of western Arizona, situated near the northern reaches of the Cow Creek drainage. The terrain is characterized by the broad, gradual slopes of Dutch Flat, a geographic feature that dictates the network of rural desert roads spanning the quadrangle. These routes, such as Alamo Crossing Rd and Geronimo Rd, follow the natural contours of the basin, reflecting the area's history of ranching and land management. The presence of specialized street names like Cattle Crossing Rd and Gold Mine Rd suggests a landscape shaped by both the livestock industry and localized prospecting efforts typical of Mohave County's rural backcountry in the early 21st century.
