1990 Map of Malpais Hill

USGS Topo · Published 1990

About this map

The Crater Range dominates the southern landscape of this Arizona survey, its jagged topography rising sharply above the desert floor. This 1990 provisional map documents a portion of the Barry M Goldwater Air Force Range, an area largely defined by its military boundaries and natural obstacles. The northern section is marked by the distinct prominence of Malpais Hill, a volcanic landmark standing isolated amidst the broad drainage patterns of the Midway Wash. The map reflects a landscape managed for defense purposes, where human presence is restricted to military use and the natural geography remains largely undisturbed. It provides a technical look at the intersection of steep mountain terrain and the expansive alluvial plains typical of the Maricopa County desert interior.
