1990 Map of Monreal Well

USGS Topo · Published 1990

About this map

The Mohawk Mountains rise sharply out of the desert floor in this 1990 provisional study, serving as a stark dividing line between the low-lying San Cristobal Valley and the surrounding arid plains. This section of Yuma County is defined by its vast federal tracts, where the Barry M Goldwater Air Force Range meets the Cabeza Prieta National Wildlife Refuge. Traces of early human activity and resource extraction are scattered along the western mountain slopes, evidenced by a Mine Shaft, an Adit, and a lone Prospect. In the valley, the Monreal Well (Dry) and a nearby Corral suggest a history of seasonal grazing or failed water-seeking in an environment primarily dominated by the seasonal San Cristobal Wash. The presence of a Ruin tucked into the mountain foothills further underscores the transient nature of settlement in this part of the Sonoran Desert.
