1970 Map of Lake Havasu City South

USGS Topo · Published 1973

About this map

Lake Havasu City expands across the shoreline in the early 1970s, a period of rapid development following the master-planned vision of Robert P. McCulloch. The suburban street grid, including the Lake Havasu Golf & Country Club, High Sch, and Jr High Sch, contrasts sharply with the desert terrain of the Chemehuevi Indian Reservation to the south. The shoreline is dominated by Lake Havasu State Park, where landmarks like Pittsburg Point and Thompson Bay highlight the area's transition into a major recreational hub. In the southern reaches of the quadrangle, the landscape remains largely untamed, featuring natural landmarks like Pilot Rock and Steamboat Rock along the Colorado River, while the Roulette Mine sits tucked into the foothills of the Whipple Mountains, reflecting the region's older prospecting history.
