2021 Map of Milkweed Canyon SW

USGS Topo · Published 2021

About this map

The Music Mountains and the dramatic Grand Wash Cliffs dominate this high-desert landscape in northwestern Arizona. This 2021 topographic record reveals a territory defined by complex verticality, where the Hualapai Plateau transitions into deep incisions like Milkweed Canyon and West Water Canyon. The scarcity of water is the primary driver of the map's nomenclature, with vital points such as Dewey Mahone Spring, Black Rock Spring, and Milkweed Spring scattered across the arid terrain. Human navigation in this remote area is primarily confined to unpaved routes like Indian Rte 1 and Milkweed Rd, which follow the natural contours of the mesas. Distinctive landmarks such as Black Mesa and Laughing Jack Butte provide essential visual orientation within this largely uninhabited stretch of Mohave County.
