1989 Map of Housholder Pass

USGS Topo · Published 1990

About this map

Housholder Pass serves as a prominent natural notch within the arid landscape of Mohave County, where the high desert terrain transitions toward the eastern edges of the Lake Mead National Recreation Area. This late-twentieth-century survey documents a landscape defined by drainage patterns and extraction efforts, with Detrital Wash cutting through the broad expanse of the Detrital Valley. Evidence of mining activity is scattered across the topography, particularly near the volcanic formations of the Malpais, where numerous Mine Shafts, Prospects, and a Shaft indicate historic mineral exploration. A technical landmark, the USMM No 2948 mineral monument, provides a fixed point for early surveying, while a utility corridor and various 4WD tracks represent the limited modern infrastructure crossing this desert expanse.
