1968 Map of Long Mountain

About this map

Long Mountain dominates this desert landscape, rising abruptly from the surrounding floor of the Hualapai Valley in northwestern Arizona. The map illustrates a high-desert environment where water management is central to human activity, as evidenced by the distribution of isolated infrastructure like Foo Tank, the Hualapai Reservoir, and several wells and water tanks. Settlement is sparse, represented by the Dutton Ranch, which serves as a solitary hub for activity in the valley. A series of unimproved paths and a Jeep Trail provide the primary means of navigating the arid terrain, while a legacy of exploration is marked by an isolated Drill Hole located east of the ranch. The contours reveal the intricate drainage patterns and sharp elevations of the mountain range as it appeared during the late 1960s.
