2021 Map of Malpais Mesa

USGS Topo · Published 2021

About this map

Malpais Mesa rises as a prominent landmark within the Mojave Desert, defining the arid landscape of this Yavapai County territory. Drainage patterns are heavily marked by seasonal watercourses like Black Canyon Wash and Black Mesa Wash, which carve through the high ground toward the S Fork Santa Maria River in the north. The presence of Lower Hackberry Spring provides a critical water source in an otherwise dry environment, situated near the western edge of the mesa. Alamo Rd serves as the primary corridor through the southwestern portion of the map, following the path of Hackberry Wash. This area exhibits the characteristic transition from rugged canyon terrain, such as Cottonwood Canyon, to the broad, open stretches of the eastern desert flats.
