2018 Map of Kofa Butte

About this map

Kofa Butte serves as the central landmark for this arid Yuma County terrain, where drainage patterns and desert peaks define the local geography. The area is dominated by the Kofa Mountains and several significant elevations, including Polaris Mtn and the unique formation at Natural Arch. The landscape is etched by seasonal watercourses such as Hoodoo Wash, Yaqui Wash, and N Star Wash, illustrating the complex natural drainage that dictates travel and survival in this desert environment. Travel through the higher elevations is directed by corridors like Big Horn Pass and the drainage of Moonshine Gulch. The map's detailed topography, derived from modern elevation datasets and census data, provides a clear view of the rugged public land survey system divisions in this part of Arizona.
