About this map

The wide desert expanse of the Sacramento Valley dominates this landscape, defined by a complex network of seasonal drainages including Cerbat Wash, Thirteenmile Wash, and Sacramento Wash. Human activity in this arid portion of Mohave County is centered on water management and regional infrastructure, marked by essential water sources like Newguard Well and Jones Deep Well, alongside a Pumping Station.

Modern development during the mid-to-late twentieth century appears in the form of a Landing Strip and a Communication Facility situated in the northern reaches. The terrain transitions from the valley floor to the prominent rising form of Castle Rock in the northeast. This 1967 survey, with revisions added in the early 1980s, documents a period of infrastructure expansion in the desert, including a prominent Telephone line and various pits for resource extraction.
