2018 Map of Mohave Peak

About this map

Mohave Peak dominates the southern reaches of this arid landscape in La Paz County, rising above the southeastern foothills of the Trigo Mountains. The terrain is defined by a complex network of ephemeral drainages, most notably Mohave Wash and Gould Wash, which carve wide paths through the desert floor. This 2018 survey illustrates the characteristic alluvial patterns of the region, where seasonal waters move from the higher elevations of the Trigo range toward the surrounding basins. The map provides a precise look at the land's topographical structure, showing the intricate contouring of the ridges and the broad, braided channels of the washes that dictate the movement of water and travel through this part of the Arizona desert.
