2014 Map of Mohawk Mountains SW

About this map

Mohawk Mountains dominate the northeastern portion of this topographic survey, rising sharply from the basin floor in the Sonoran Desert. The landscape is defined by the stark transition between the steep, rocky slopes of the range and the broad, alluvial expanse of the Mohawk Valley to the west. This 2014 document captures the drainage patterns of the arid region, specifically the course of the Mohawk Wash as it trends northward through the valley. The map is primarily characterized by its remote desert terrain, illustrating the complex network of ephemeral stream beds that shape the desert pavement and bajadas. The Public Land Survey System grid is meticulously overlaid across the townships, providing a foundational reference for the sparsely populated territory in Yuma County.
