1968 Map of Elements Canyon

USGS Topo · Published 1971

About this map

The Cerbat Mountains dominate this 1960s survey, revealing a landscape defined by ranching and vital water sources in the high desert of Mohave County. In an environment where water dictates survival, the map records numerous critical points such as Elements Spring, Cohenour Spring, and the paired Lower Cherum Spring and Upper Cherum Spring. Evidence of human activity is scattered throughout the canyons and basins, notably at Coanra Ranch and a remote Corral in the eastern flats. Transport through this territory is facilitated by the Stockton Hill Road and a network of named trails. The transition from the high peaks down through Vock Wash into the broad Hualapai Valley illustrates the drainage patterns essential for local cattle operations. Several locations marked simply as Prospect suggest the region's history of mineral exploration during this era.
