1926 Map of Fortuna

USGS Topo · Published 1956

About this map

The Fortuna Mine anchors the southern portion of this rugged Yuma County landscape, reflecting the era's desert mining activity within the Gila Mountains. This survey, updated in the mid-1920s, documents a transit corridor defined by the Gila River and the Southern Pacific railroad, which connect small outposts like Blaisdell, Fortuna, and Ligurta. The terrain is marked by sharp elevation changes, from the river valley floor to the prominent peaks of the Muggins Mountains and distinctive landmarks like Clothos Temple.
