1973 Map of Margies Peak

USGS Topo · Published 1975

About this map

Maricopa Mountains dominate this arid landscape, rising sharply from the floor of Rainbow Valley and Little Rainbow Valley. The terrain is characterized by intricate desert drainage systems, notably Rainbow Wash, and steep summits including Margies Peak and Sheep Mountain. Water sources in this high-heat environment are sparse, marked by man-made infrastructure like the CCC Tank, Hazen Tank, and the seasonally unreliable Mountain Well (Dry). A singular Prospect on the northern slopes of the range points to the region's history of mineral exploration. Transport and utility corridors are minimal, consisting primarily of Riggs Road, a Private Pipeline, and several Jeep Trails that skirt the base of the mountains and lead into the sheltered Margies Cove.
