1965 Map of Mohawk SE

About this map

Mohawk Valley dominates this 1965 survey, a landscape defined by an extensive drainage system of ephemeral washes flowing through the arid Southwest. This specific area is designated as the Luke Air Force Range, highlighting the mid-century military utilization of the Yuma County desert. In the northeast corner, the topography shifts abruptly into a field of Sand Dunes, where the terrain elevation rises sharply. The map captures a moment when the U.S. Bureau of Reclamation was active in the region, with data integrated from earlier 1940s planetable surveys. The lack of permanent structures or roads across this vast stretch reflects the area's specialized role as a military proving ground and restricted wilderness during the Cold War era.
