1957 Map of McMicken Dam

About this map

The Mc Micken Dam and its expansive Detention Basin dominate this mid-century landscape in Maricopa County. This critical infrastructure project, including the Mc Micken Dam Spillway 1354 and an Outlet Channel, was designed to manage the unpredictable runoff from desert watercourses like Trilby Wash and Padelford Wash. The area serves as a junction of transportation and military history, featuring the Atchison Topeka and Santa Fe railroad line cutting diagonally across the terrain toward Beardsley.
