About this map

Sunshine Ridge dominates the northern horizon of this mid-century topographic survey, where the arid high-desert landscape of Mohave County is defined by a complex network of deep drainages. The mapping emphasizes the critical role of water management in this environment, marking scattered catchments such as Hacks Reservoir, Nates Tank, and Robinson Res. These isolated features represent the sparse but vital infrastructure necessary for ranching or land use in a region characterized by dramatic elevation shifts. The survey meticulously traces the branching systems of Hacks Canyon and Nates Canyon, which cut through the plateau to form a labyrinth of landforms typical of the Arizona Strip. This preliminary data was compiled just after the war, providing a detailed look at the unimproved roads and geographic landmarks before modern development or advanced infrastructure reached this part of the state.
