About this map

Beaver River and a complex network of irrigation channels, including the Aberdare Canal, Patterson Ditch, and S Field Ditch, define the agricultural landscape north of the South Hills. This high-desert terrain is characterized by the broad Greenville Bench and numerous named hollows such as Negro Hollow, Lockjaw Hollow, and California Hollow.

Water management is central to this region's development, evidenced by several catchments like Jims Reservoir, Howards Pond, and the CCC Pond. The southern portion of the map transitions into the foothills of the Black Mountains and Little Valley, crossing the county line between Beaver Co and Iron Co. Transportation infrastructure is anchored by the Beaver Municipal Airport and the modern interstate corridor passing through the eastern canyons.
