2021 Map of Elbow Canyon

USGS Topo · Published 2021

About this map

Littlefield sits at the northern edge of this dramatic landscape where the Virgin River cuts through the desert terrain of northwestern Mohave County. The map documents a complex system of drainage and erosion, characterized by numerous deep-cut geographic features including Elbow Canyon, Boulder Canyon, and Hancock Canyon. The hydrologic patterns are defined by seasonal watercourses like Sand Hollow Wash and Coon Cr, which drain toward the river as it winds past prominent topographical landmarks such as Big Bend and Little Bend. Transportation through this arid environment is facilitated by a network of local roads including Hidden Valley Rd and the historically named Mormom Trl. This survey illustrates the relationship between the limited human footprint at the Arizona border and the formidable natural barriers of the eastern Mojave Desert.
