1967 Map of Grasshopper Junction

About this map

Grasshopper Junction sits at the southern edge of this Mohave County landscape, serving as a landmark in a territory defined by the broad Detrital Valley and the rising slopes of the Cerbat Mts. Surveyed in the late 1960s, the map reveals a rugged desert economy where water and minerals dictate the layout. Sparse infrastructure like Cottonwood Road and various Jeep Trails connect isolated corrals and water tanks, while signs of extraction are evident near Sugarloaf Mountain through marked Tailings and a Prospect. The complex drainage system is articulated by several seasonal flows, including Putman Wash, Detrital Wash, and Big Wash, which carve through the arid terrain. For researchers and genealogists, the placement of specific dry wells and springs like Quail Spring provides concrete evidence of the environmental challenges faced by those ranching and mining in this corner of Arizona.
