1965 Map of Isla Pinta

USGS Topo · Published 1970

About this map

Sierra Pinta and the Mohawk Mountains dominate this arid landscape within the Cabeza Prieta Game Range and the adjacent Luke Air Force Range. The map documents a critical network of water sources essential for survival in this desert environment, including Isla Pinta, North Pinta Tank, and Senora Tank. The land is characterized by dramatic topographic features like Point of the Pintas and deep incisions such as What Fo Canyon and Chia Canyon. Traces of human activity are sparse but significant, marked by the Dry Well Corral near the Luke Air Force Range Boundary and scattered Jeep Trails. Travel through the mountains is facilitated by traditional routes like Bean Pass, Sunday Pass, and Christmas Pass, while the broad Mohawk Valley and Tule Desert provide the connective floor between the ranges.
