1965 Map of Mohawk

USGS Topo · Published 1982

About this map

The Southern Pacific railroad corridor cuts across the desert landscape of this Arizona quadrangle, marking the primary artery of commerce through the Mohawk Valley. Near the settlement of Mohawk, the terrain transitions from the alluvial floor to the steep slopes of the Mohawk Mts, where Mohawk Pass provides a natural crossing. The presence of Ruins and Prospects near the mountains suggests early mining and settlement efforts in this arid environment, while a Pumping Station, Flume, and several Test Wells indicate the critical importance of water management and resource exploration during the mid-20th century. Extensive Sand Dunes dominate the southern portion of the sheet, falling within the boundaries of the Luke Air Force Range. This military designation contrasts with the civilian infrastructure of the north, including a remote Landing Strip and Gravel Pits located along the rail line.
