1969 Map of Moapa Peak SE

About this map

Mormon Mesa dominates this desert landscape in the late 1960s, its flat-topped expanse bisected by modern infrastructure and ancient routes. The historic Old Spanish Trail follows a path roughly parallel to the emerging interstate corridor, providing a tangible link to 19th-century trade routes across the Mojave. Industrial activity is evident through numerous Borrow Pits and a Gravel Pit along the southern portion of the sheet, while a solitary Corral and Prospect to the north indicate more traditional land uses.
