About this map

Bumblebee Mountain dominates the southwestern portion of this desert landscape, where the Wah Wah Mountains meet the wide drainage of the Wah Wah Valley. The map reveals a history of resource extraction, centered around numerous prospects and several Open Pit Mines located in the southern foothills. Water management is critical in this arid environment, evidenced by an Aqueduct crossing Quartz Creek and a network of livestock or industrial catchments including Grover Wash Reservoir and Brimstone Reservoir. To the east, Miners Hill and its associated Miners Hill Reservoir sit near the edge of the valley floor. Isolated improvements like a Water Tank and a Corral emphasize the range-land character of the area, while Willow Spring provides a rare natural water source tucked into the western slopes.
