2018 Map of Housholder Pass

About this map

Housholder Pass serves as a critical geographic notch through the Black Mountains in this modern topographical survey of Northwest Arizona. The arid landscape is dominated by the transition from high ridgelines down into the Mojave Desert floor, with a significant portion of the western territory preserved within the Lake Mead National Recreation Area. These desert lands are defined by seasonal drainage patterns, most notably the wide Detrital Wash which flows through the Detrital Valley to the east. Transportation through this remote section of Mohave County is anchored by CO Hwy 143, which navigates the steep elevation changes near the pass. The map provides a clear look at the Public Land Survey System township and range lines, essential for modern property research and understanding the large-scale administrative boundaries of the American West.
